One of the most stylish features of this timepiece is the colored sapphire, which accentuates complications featured on the watch. For starters, the watch comes with multiple indicators to display the exact day and month.

It also has a date indicator, with denotations running from 4 to 8 O’clock in a semi-circular line. Such denotations are complemented by white hour markers. Unlike the previous models, this model is fitted with long hour markers, which are quite stylish. Since the hour markers are filled with Super-LumiNova, this timepiece makes it easier for anyone to tell the time at night.

Thanks to the clear case back, every element on the mechanism, from the jewel to the mechanical bridges, is in plain sight—this adds some character to the watch.

The Bovet Récital 21 Perpetual Calendar is equipped with the 13DM05-QPR caliber, which offers a 120-hour power reserve.

The watch is available in three different color options—blue, green, and brown. Each color option comes with a matching strap. For instance, the timepiece with the blue sapphire is complemented by a blue strap.

As a limited edition piece, Bovet rolled out 180 pieces. Every color has 60 pieces. The Bovet Récital 21 Perpetual Calendar retails at $101,448.

Hamilton Intra-Matic Auto Chrono

Hamilton's Intra-Matic is a retro watch from the ‘60s, which was revamped in 2017 to keep up with the times. It was rolled out in 1969 and was the first Hamilton piece to feature a modern automatic movement, popularly known as the Caliber 11—the brainchild of Dubois-Depraz, Breitling, Tag Heuer, Buren, and Hamilton.

With the newest iteration, the brand preserved the Panda design but swapped the original color for a modern hue. A few elements were also passed down to this generation. Like the first-ever model, the 2025 edition has baton indexes accentuated by a white tip.

The biggest ring tells the hours, the ring in the middle displays minutes, and the smallest one shows seconds. All can be read by looking at a pointer that does not move.
