The Récital 28 Prowess 1 Wins “Watch of the Year”

It is with great pride that we announce that this year Robb Report has awarded the BOVET Récital 28 Prowess 1 the “Watch of the Year” in their 36th annual Best of the Best Awards. This ground-breaking Grand Complication is the first mechanical timepiece to solve the Daylight Saving Time issue plaguing all previous world timers.

Using a unique system of 25 four sided rollers, this timepiece ensures that you will always accurately know what time it is anywhere in the world. In addition to the ingenious world time system, the timepiece also integrates an expanded flying tourbillon and a perpetual calendar on rollers.

The worldwide luxury magazine chose the Récital 28 Prowess 1 for “its incredible achievement of solving a longstanding issue of the World Timer, as well as the brand’s continued commitment to incredible finishing and fine watchmaking.”

Technical specifications

The House of BOVET has a long and distinguished history in multiple time zone timepieces, including dual time, three time zone, and world time timepieces.

The Récital 28 Prowess 1 is a result of over five years of development, featuring meticulous hand-finishing, hand-engraved bridges, and a limited production of only eight timepieces per year in 18K Red Gold, 950 Platinum, and Grade 5 Titanium. This timepiece represents a significant leap in solving terrestrial timekeeping problems, ensuring accuracy in global timekeeping.
