Boucheron "Reflet" watch, 18k yellow gold and diamonds — full set with seven interchangeable straps

The case, with its vertical gadroons characteristic of the model, measures 35.5 × 23.5 mm.
The square dial, gold-toned, carries gilt hands with no indices — referred to as a "blind dial" — for an uncluttered read. Four double rows of round brilliant-cut diamonds frame the dial on all four sides.
Sapphire crystal, scratch-resistant.
The crown is set with a sapphire cabochon, a distinctive detail of the model.
Quartz movement, hours and minutes only.
Screw-back case, signed Boucheron and numbered.
Signed dial.
Concealed interchangeable strap system, specific to the Reflet model.
The watch is accompanied by seven interchangeable straps:
- one four-row cultured pearl bracelet, alternating with 18k yellow gold bars, signed, with maker's mark and serial number;
- six exotic leather straps (ostrich, python, lizard, crocodile), in blue, red, purple, grey, green and brown, all signed Boucheron.

Condition
Very good working order. A few micro-scratches on the case and dial, unavoidable on a worn piece: they speak to a watch that has been used, not neglected. A few faint internal marks visible inside the dial, with no impact on legibility. The interchangeable straps, including the pearl bracelet, are in unworn condition.
The strap attachment system, which slides and locks directly against the case, functions perfectly.
What makes this example noteworthy: it is a complete full set — original case, outer box, dated certificate — accompanied by seven signed straps, six of which are unworn exotic leathers. This level of completeness has become uncommon on the secondary market for this model. The 35.5 mm version with gold dial and diamonds represents the most assertive configuration of the Reflet line. Retail prices range from €12,000 to €16,000 depending on case size and the presence of diamonds.
