Boucheron Carré – Yellow Gold, 1970s

Boucheron Carrée 18k Yellow Gold Unique Central Seconds Like New Condition with Box circa 1970’s

A square of gold, designed like a piece of architecture.

In the 1970s, Boucheron brought its high-jewelry savoir-faire into watchmaking with the Carrée, a timepiece that balances contrasts: the strict geometry of its case and the soft satin finish of its brushed dial.

What makes this rare model stand out is an unusual detail for the Maison: a central seconds hand. A configuration almost unique among Boucheron’s creations of that era, adding both balance and refinement to the design.

Its proportions (25 x 31 mm) give a discreet elegance on the wrist, while the 18k yellow gold case—untouched and unpolished—retains sharp edges and crisp hallmarks.

Inside beats a hand-wound mechanical movement, specially modified by Boucheron.

A beautifully preserved example, complete with its original 18k gold Boucheron-signed buckle and presentation box.
