Vintage Cartier, Authentically Yours
’’Rare Piece’’ Boucheron Case 18kWG Manual Wind B
Having been featured in HODINKEE, vintage Boucheron watches have now become collectors’ items.
This is an especially unusual example: a rare Boucheron oval watch with a white-gold hunter case and a B-marked dial.
It is an exceptionally rare piece worldwide.
It features a special mechanism for attaching and removing the strap: the case is opened and closed like a hunter case, allowing the strap to be fitted. As a result, the crown and strap connection points are concealed, giving the watch an elegant, dressy appearance.
Only a few percent of Boucheron watches were produced with white-gold cases, making this one particularly rare.
The dial featuring Boucheron’s B is also uncommon, making this a truly distinctive watch.
It should appeal to those who appreciate unusual timepieces.
PRODUCT DETAILS
Condition and Warranty
The case has some minor scratches but no significant dents or other major damage.
It is essentially unpolished, and considering its age, the case is in remarkably clean condition.
The white-gold case is exceptionally well preserved.
The case back has some light scratches, but the engravings and lettering remain clear. It has been left as is to preserve its originality.
The dial, hands, and other components have some scratches and light soiling, but are considered remarkably clean given the watch’s age.
The crystal has some light scratches but is clean overall.
There are no other particularly noticeable issues, and the watch has not been polished in order to preserve its original condition.
Overall, it is in good condition considering its age.
The Strap is an original strap made by our store (for a Wrist Size of approximately 17 cm).
As this is essentially a one-of-a-kind custom order, we recommend having the Strap made after purchase.
A different material can also be ordered separately upon request.
However, creating it requires disassembling the Strap and removing the clasp, so the current Strap must be sacrificed.
This piece will be delivered after an overhaul (please allow approximately one month).
