In recent years, BOVET has issued a piece unique in celebration of the Chinese New Year, in homage to the House’s longstanding history with China and in appreciation of the nation’s rich culture. Now the Year of the Monkey Monsieur BOVET piece unique stands as an unforgettable timepiece that will commemorate the dawn of a new year in a fitting medium – an artful, one of a kind BOVET timepiece.
