A brand with a powerful history behind, the prestigious house of watch manufacturing Badollet continues to amaze the world of watch manufacturing even today, with its unbelievable sense of refinement captured in the manufacturing of its latest timepieces.
The history of Badollet started somewhere near the 1650’s and ever since that period, this brand is still consolidating its reputation as the world’s most prized watch manufacturing brand, mainly focusing on wrist and pocket watches. Luxury and elegance were core values of this brand and just as their motto resounds even today, “innovation with respect for tradition”, the brand continues to show its complete dedication and commitment to the elaborated and elegant design of that period. By aiming only at the best, this brand proposes a neoclassicist perspective to design that seems extremely appealing to the modern man that’s interested in both progress, but also tradition and a sense of history, of heritage. This is exactly what the Badollet brand offers through the new timepieces introduced, innovation with respect for tradition.
The latest timepiece released by Badollet goes by the name of Observatoire 1872 Minute Repeater Watch and it is a modernly-shaped timepiece characterized by remarkable technical proficiency. The new watch has a sophisticated, yet contemporary design composed by a 44 mm in diameter case crafted from 18 K white gold that shelters a progressive mechanism, worthy of the Badollet’s reputation. The case construction guarantees reliability in case of water diving, the watch having the capacity to resist down to 30 meters deep, without causing the slightest problem to the mechanism inside.
The technical perfection of the new Badollet Observatoire 1872 Minute Repeater Watch is what attracts the watch connoisseurs to this watch and to the brand as well, because Badollet has become to be viewed as a symbol of proficiency in watch manufacturing. The technical functions offered by this timepiece include a minute repeater, a flying tourbillon and the standard functions of hours, minutes and seconds. All these functions are the result of the manually-wound BAD1655 calibre movement, working inside this remarkable watch. The mechanism can also provide 80 hours of power reserve.
The touch of sophistication is given to the design of the new Badollet Observatoire 1872 Minute Repeater Watch by its dial that employs diamonds. The skeleton dial makes use of 72 baguette diamonds and 12 sapphires applied tastefully on its surface. The main focus of the dial is the tourbillon cage located at 6 o’clock, followed by the minute repeater, at 9 o’clock.
The elaborated design that looks extremely refined and sophisticated is completed by an elegant alligator leather strap that can be either matte or shiny. The strap ends in a folding clasp or a buckle made from 18 K white gold, just as the case.
