Soiree For the Reine de Naples Collection in Paris

Last week, VIP guests gathered in the Breguet boutique at Place Vendôme to celebrate the origins of the Reine de Naples collection.

This was the occasion for them to discover the latest creations of the House of Breguet, such as the Reine de Naples 8918 with its Tahitian mother-of-pearl dial, unveiled during this year’s Baselworld.

Which other city would have been more emblematic to honor the Reine de Naples collection than the city in where the Breguet firm was founded? It is indeed in its workshop on Quai de l’Horloge in Paris that Abraham-Louis Breguet completes the very first wristwatch in 1812 for Caroline Murat, Queen of Naples. This creation will not only mark the history of watchmaking but will also inspire the House, which then develops the modern collection in 2002 and pays tribute to this legendary timepiece and to the iconic client who inspired it
