Highly Commended. Mechanical Watches of the Year 2014.<\/p>\n
Even among the watches mentioned in these pages the Bovet Recital 16, from the brand’s Dimier collection, is a real horological tour de force. It’s a testament to the sheer complication of the Recital 16 that its suspended seven-day tourbillon at the 6 o’clock position is not the star of the show.<\/strong><\/p>\n That honour goes to a triple time zone complication occupying the upper section of the dial. Local time is represented with central hour and minute hands with seconds indicated by three hands that track along a retrograde scale on the tourbillon.<\/p>\n At the 3 and 9 o’clock are dials with hour and minute hands for the second and third time zones. Each is equipped with its own day\/night dial in a ‘moonphase’ style as well as crystal dials indicating time zones via 24 cities worldwide. If all this were not enough the Recital 16 packs a full seven day power reserve. A truly breathtaking achievement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Highly Commended.
