It is said that in 1810, Abraham-Louis Breguet created a special watch that could be worn on the wrist at the request of Caroline Murat, The sister of Napoleon Bonaparte and Queen of Naples. Based on this historical watch, The Reine de Naples collection, Featuring an original oval (or droplet)-shaped case, Was created in 2002. This is Breguet’s representative women’s collection that combines femininity and technical precision, And is available in various versions that incorporate elaborate decorative techniques and the Maison’s unique watchmaking aesthetic.

The egg-shaped case made of 18K white gold measures 33mm x 24.95mm and is the perfect fit for women of all ages. The bezel is set with 45 brilliant-cut diamonds, While the chapter ring is adorned with 66 rubies, Small but with a strong presence. The dial is made of mother-of-pearl, And the off-centre dial edge where the hour and minute hands are located features 12 heart-shaped ruby indexes, Subtly incorporating the theme of love into this precious timepiece. The Valentine’s Day color theme continues naturally into the red ruby cabochon on the crown. Although it is a fascinating jewel timepiece, This small case houses the Maison’s in-house expertise, The self-winding caliber 586/1 movement.
