In the Pink

History inspires both nostalgia and emulation; Breguet’s new creation, Reine de Naples 8905, which has historically has been designed for women, is part of the Reine de Naples collection. The collection pays homage to the wristwatch that Abraham-Louis Breguet made for Caroline Murat, Queen of Naples, in 1812 and is the first known wristwatch in the world. Inspired by this historic piece, the Reine de Naples is distinguished by a curved, oval, slightly elongated case. This year, the marque plays with shades of pink, inspired once again by the original display, with the dial dressed in iridescent pale pink mother-of-pearl, a moon and several stars in white gold that take hold their own against the deeper pink of the moon-phase indicator. The pink cabochon-cut sapphire set on the crown lends it a surreal sparkle. With only 28 pieces available in this limited edition, it is a collector’s pride and joy.
