Horological Meandering

Maison Boanton is launching a watch which is going to talk to the heart of watch and car lovers and particularly the aficionados of the famous Alpine A110. Indeed this « Heritage » was inspired by the emotion of this iconic French car and so many details ...  

I'm sure Nico has or will get one 😁👌

So it’s not possible that he already has one but he might order one as many Alpine fans 😉 future will tell…

j/k It looks very cool!

At least I know already a number of them 😉

I honestly didn’t know about this company, but they did good here…and no date for Nico!

…you are so right, no date! 👍👌👌

And fitting the Alpine vibe very well (in my eyes better than the official watches). Just one small detail - the A110 was launched in October 1962, not 1955 (the year of the other French icon, the DS). 😊

The A110 was indeed launched in 1962 👍

Doesn’t alter anything about the greatness of watch or Alpine 😊

this looks like their best attempt yet. I've always liked their cushion case, but the Ellipse and the Emblème left me a bit unsatisfied. This new model looks great, but the automotive inspiration is so strong with the steering wheel hands that it seems ha... 

…this is a limited edition of only 252 pcs so it shouldn’t be a problem for this watch to find its clients. And yes they have a new classic collection also. I’ll talk about it shortly…😉

The wrist test is always the only relevant one 😉

I don't know anything about the brand, or the quality. But this seems like a very well thought out piece for a more than fair price. I have gambled on 2 similar purchases in the last 5 years. I ordered the initial Laventure diver and Airain Type 20 Verte ... 

Fully agreed with you. I didn’t mention the price but you are so much right, this one is not only quite well done and well thought out but also is at a quite fair and competitive price

I love the case design 👌🏻
