Clous de Paris Textured Case

A beautifully elegant Boucheron Carrée wristwatch crafted in solid 18ct yellow gold, featuring the distinctive Clous de Paris hobnail texture that gives the case and dial a refined architectural character.

Founded in Paris in 1858, Boucheron is one of the great historic jewellery houses of the Place Vendôme, celebrated for combining exceptional jewellery craftsmanship with refined watchmaking. Vintage Boucheron watches are admired for their understated elegance and distinctive design, often blurring the line between fine jewellery and horology.

The Carrée model is one of the maison’s most elegant designs. Its square case with finely textured Clous de Paris finish catches the light beautifully while maintaining a subtle, sophisticated appearance. The clean dial and slim profile create a watch that feels both timeless and effortlessly wearable.

Paired with a leather strap and gold buckle, this watch has the refined presence of a classic Parisian dress watch – equally suited to everyday elegance or special occasions.

More than simply a timepiece, this watch represents a piece of French luxury design history.
