Bovet Pininfarina Cambiano Chronograph

About this reference

The Bovet Pininfarina Cambiano Chronograph CHPIN001 was introduced around 2011 as a collaboration between the Swiss manufacture and the Italian design house. Collectors value this reference for its Amadeo convertible case system, which allows the 45mm stainless steel timepiece to function as a wristwatch, pocket watch, desk clock, or dashboard timer without tools. It features the caliber 13BA01, an automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve, housed in a "bullhead" configuration with the crown and chronograph pushers at 12 o'clock. The dial utilizes vertical brushing and circular sub-dials inspired by automotive instrumentation. While Bovet maintains low annual production volumes, this reference is currently available on the secondary market for approximately $12,000 to $18,000. A notable variant is the limited edition "60th Anniversary" model, though the standard CHPIN001 remains the foundational entry in the Pininfarina partnership.
