The Queen of Naples, Caroline Murat, Bonaparte’s sister, purchased her first Breguet watch at the age of 23 and went on to collect more than 30 of his timepieces. The most famous was the Number 2639, a quarter repeater in an oblong case, delivered in 1812. This watch has been lost, but the inspiration continues in the Reine de Naples collection. Some of the most stunning ladies watches with mechanical movements on the planet in my opinion.
These are just a few photos I found from my visit to the Place Vendome Breguet Boutique in Paris. Romantic watches in a romantic city. Beautiful.
