Description
This Bovet Mono-Rattrapante 5347 from the 1950s is an exceptional collector's piece. The attractive lemon-yellow dial, the famous Mono-Rattrapante caliber Valjoux 84, and the large 38 mm case create a rare and highly desirable combination.

The unmistakable feature of this timepiece is undoubtedly its fascinating lemon-yellow dial with its rare multi-color and multi-scale design. The warm, subtle hue of the dial harmonises perfectly with the blue and red tachymeter and telemeter scales, the beautifully aged luminous numerals and the metallic blue hands. This exquisite combination gives the watch an unmistakable look full of character.

The generous stainless steel case not only gives the watch an impressive presence on the wrist, but also stands out for its unusual size of 38 mm, making it a true rarity of its era.

The watch is powered by the hand-wound Valjoux 84 caliber, exclusively developed for Bovet's mono rattrapante chronographs in the 1930s and 1940s. The chronograph is started by pressing the upper pusher, while the lower pusher stops the seconds hand for split time measurement. When the pusher is released, the second hand resumes its continuous motion - an elegant and technically impressive function reminiscent of a classic rattrapante, but executed with a single hand.

More than just a timepiece, the Bovet Mono-Rattrapante is a testament to the technical sophistication of the renowned watchmaker Bovet, founded in 1822. An exceptional watch that will enrich any discerning collection.
