The "Récital 23 Hope" timepiece of Maison BOVET resonates harmoniously with the ONLY WATCH initiative which raises money for Duchenne muscular dystrophy research. For intuitive reading of the time, the "writing-desk" case is in the form of a vertically elongated oval. The bezel inclines reverently to meet one's gaze and ingeniously reveals the threedimensional architecture of the movement and its time display.

The aventurine dial is off set and serves as the backdrop. Its deep blue and signature inclusions depict a sparkling sky of a thousand stars, like so many wishes and dreams. A fairy seated on a crescent moon is delicately painted onto the hour and minute dial. This piece, unique in more ways than one, comes with a shimmering "broken glass" eff ect that delicately connects the time display to the hemispherical moon phase itself fi lled with luminescent material.

The last detail is the unique design of the hour and minute hands, which form a heart each time they touch once an hour for a supremely symbolic expression of time.
