The Boston 486 (47mm)

What makes the Boston 486 unique: Today we are happy to present The Boston 486, a remarkable wristwatch built from an antique 17-jewel pocket watch originally crafted in 1912 by the Waltham Watch Company in Waltham, Massachusetts. The highlight of The Boston 486 is its ethereal marbled dial, encircled by glimmering gold numerals and accented with cobalt blue open diamond hands. We have preserved the original movement, with its rose gold plated gears, to maintain the watch's historical significance. We have paired this with our gilded titanium case and a knurled copper crown, giving the watch a modern and luxurious touch. To complete the look, we have chosen a rye leather strap that is both stylish and durable. This watch was originally produced in 1912, the same year the Beverly Hills Hotel was designed by architect Elmer Grey and opened in California, quickly becoming a symbol of luxury and glamour in the United States. Its signature pink and green color scheme, inspired by the surrounding bougainvillea and palms, and its famous guests such as Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, and the Beatles, have solidified its place in history. Today, it remains a popular destination for visitors to California seeking luxurious amenities and a taste of Hollywood history.
