Introducing The pure Collection From Boucheron (Live Pics & Pricing)
May 09, 2013
Boucheron pure With Brushed Dial Taking its name from the French word for an artist's working sketch, Boucheron's pure collection pares down the dress watch to its most fundamental elements. The results are tough to argue with, combining solid movements, classic design, and a handful of options to suit various tastes. High?jewelry?brands have been producing some fantastic watches these past few years, and the Boucheron pure is no exception. Thin pure case with gadroons and cabochon crown The pure collection is composed of 19 different watches, in various case and dial combinations, plus there is the option of having a date at 6 o'clock or not. Sure, on the extreme end of things there are a few options with diamond bezels and there is also a special tourbillon pure, but most of the collection excels at achieving restrained, well-executed elegance. White Gold, White Dial, & Date? The first option you've got with pure is case size. Both 38mm and 42mm cases are available, and at only 10.4mm thick with short lugs, both cases sit nice and tight on the wrist. In?addition?to choosing which size you prefer, each is also available in both white or rose gold with either a white or brushed silver dial. 18k Rose Gold With White Dial & Date As you would expect from Boucheron, a brand best known for their high jewelry, there are myriad little details finishing off each pure. Pointed sapphire cabachon, possibly the shape for which Boucheron is best known, sit at 12 o'clock and in each crown. Plus there are double gadroons (rings) on each dial and around the edge of each case, recalling late nineteenth century Parisian architecture. Girard-Perregaux Caliber 4000 with Boucheron Decorations Looking through the sapphire caseback you'll see the Boucheron-finished movement, which is a Girard-Perregaux caliber 4000. The winding rotor has a cut out in the same champagne cork motif that you find stamped on the inside of all Boucheron?jewelry and the power reserve is approximately 40 hours.Prices for the pure collection are $19,350 for the 38mm models and $21,950 for the 42mm models.
