Description
A rare and captivating creation from Boucheron, this vintage “Feuille de Sauge” secret watch is an exquisite example of mid-century elegance. Crafted in 18K yellow gold, this piece dates back to circa 1953 and features a unique sage leaf motif, a signature design element inspired by nature, popular in the 1950s.
The watch’s rectangular dial is discreetly concealed and signed by both Omega and Boucheron Paris, showcasing a harmonious collaboration between two prestigious houses. The dial features applied baton indexes and Arabic numerals, adding to its vintage charm. Powered by a manual winding mechanical movement (caliber 212, Omega), this timepiece represents the pinnacle of craftsmanship and precision.
The bracelet, designed in a motif resembling sage leaves, is both rigid and lightweight, offering a comfortable fit and a distinctive style statement. The entire piece weighs 109 grams and measures approximately 15 x 20 cm, with a wrist circumference of around 16.5 cm.
This particular model is documented in the Boucheron archives and referenced in Gilles Néret’s book, “Boucheron: Le Joaillier du Temps,” highlighting its historical significance and collectability.
This remarkable piece is not only a testament to Boucheron’s innovative design but also a collectible item for watch connoisseurs. For further inquiries or to arrange a viewing, please contact us directly.
