The BOVET Récital 20 Astérium stands as a landmark creation within the Manufacture’s suite of astronomicalcomplications. Housed in BOVET’s signature 18k white gold «Writing Slope» case, the timepiece presents arich, multi-layered layout: front and center lies a translucent blue sapphire dome laser-engraved with a map ofstars and constellations. At the 6 o’clock position, a patented double-face flying tourbillon anchors the dial. Situatedsymmetrically opposite the precision moon phase and equation of time displays on the left, the r ight section features a10-day power reserve indicator paired with a peripheral retrograde minute hand.
The case back showcases an annual calendar driven by a single central hand that completes one full rotation every365.25 days to track astronomical time. This hand seamlessly tracks the months, dates, zodiac signs, seasons, solstices,and equinoxes. Powered by a hand-decorated movement composed of 771 individual components, this exceptionalwatch comes complete with its original globe display box, certificate of authenticity, setting pin, and loupe—presentedin pristine, excellent condition.
