Presenting the BOVET Recital 26 Chapter Two Golden Dragon

The Chinese idiom, “Paint the Dragon, Dot the Eyes” refers to striving to achieve perfection. With the Recital 26 Chapter Two Dragon, BOVET’s artisans have worked their hardest to realize this artistic sculpture within an established masterpiece of high horology. The golden or yellow dragon is central to Chinese mythology and symbolizes power, nobleness, honor, luck, and success in traditional Chinese culture. For BOVET, integrating the solid 18K gold dragon into the award-winning Recital 26 Chapter Two was a challenge –while the Writing Desk case provides plenty of volume, the placement of the dragon was limited to the available space between the complications -- the Hour and Minute domed Dial, the World Time Hemispheric Dial with indexable city indicator, the Mother-of-Pearl Moon Phase, and, of course, the patented BOVET flying tourbillon.
