Edouard Bovet, a gifted watchmaker
and commercial genius, founded the company with his brothers in 1822
on three precise tenets: artistic refinement, technical perfection
and uniqueness. From Fleurier in the Swiss Jura region, Edouard Bovet
himself spent more than ten years in Canton, China, where he entranced
the wealthy gentry, mandarins, even the Emperor, with precision marvels
featuring fine engraving, exquisite scenes painted on enamel, and
cases set with pearls, diamonds and other gems. Today, Bovet’s finest
pocket watches are eagerly sought by collectors and can easily reach
six figure sums at auctions. |

The Bovet style has of course
changed, because originality is part of it. The traditional purpose
has stayed the same: to make exclusive watches for connoisseurs and
watch lovers seeking nothing but the very best. Inspired by Edouard
Bovet’s “Imperial” watches, each creation reflects the elegance and
artistic expertise of Switzerland’s best watchmakers and enamellers.
The company’s limited production guarantees that every Bovet watch
is a symbol of quality and refined craftsmanship. |
