EDITOR'S REVIEW
With Khepri à Secret, this Boucheron watch keeps its true purpose a secret. Cast in the image of the Egyptian Sun God, the Boucheron Khepri à Secret watch conceals its dial within the wings of a scarab beetle crafted from white gold and set with white diamonds. A ruby cabochon head activates the push button that opens its wings, revealing a white gold watch dial set with diamonds and rubies. The gadroon-sculpted upper wings in mother-of-pearl open to reveal smaller wings in openwork set with diamonds and blue sapphires. This quartz watch comes on a brushed satin strap with a diamond-set pin buckle and measures just 28mm x 36mm when the scarab’s wings are closed. Boucheron’s ingenuity and creativity is more obvious than ever in this watch, concealing the 40 components within a miniature body without hampering the movement or its aesthetic charm.
This Boucheron watch is priced at £183,000.
