The dial of this timepiece is pure meteorite, part of the famous Gibeon meteorite that is estimated to be 4.5 billion years old. The Widmanstätten pattern (the lines you see on the dial) is only revealed after the slice of meteorite is etched using nitric acid. These lines and patterns are the result of melting and cooling in outer space over billions of years. The blue coating over the meteorite, which is the first time blue has been used like this, is actually a blue-colored PVD treatment, one that is transparent so the pattern of the meteorite is clearly visible. The timepiece showcasing this incredible dial is the 19Thirty, which has seven (7) days of power reserve from a single barrel. The manufacture movement is finished just like BOVET’s high complications and can be admired through the exhibition back – something BOVET pioneered back in the 1800s.
