Breguet has introduced a stunning new version of its iconic Reine de Naples collection. This timepiece, adorned in an exquisite fresh mint green shade, serves as a true ode to femininity, paying tribute to the remarkable women who have left indelible marks on history, set trends, and continue to shape the future.
The dial of this new Reine de Naples version is crafted from white mother-of-pearl, exuding elegance and sophistication. It features a sparkling chapter ring created using the intricate snow-setting technique.
This ring is surrounded by a discreet black minutes track, adorned with symbols inspired by the pocket watches developed by the legendary watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet. The iconic Breguet open-tipped hands gracefully indicate the hours and minutes, while a pear-shaped diamond at 6 o’clock adds a touch of poetic embellishment, enhancing the watch’s feminine allure.
Housed within an ovoid case measuring 36.5 x 28.45 mm, the Reine de Naples 8918 is powered by the 191-component 537/3 self-winding movement. This sophisticated movement boasts a 45-hour power reserve and is equipped with a balance spring and an in-line Swiss lever escapement made of silicon. Silicon’s resistance to corrosion and wear, insensitivity to magnetic fields, and enhancement of the timepiece’s accuracy make it an ideal material for this intricate mechanism.
All components of the calibre are meticulously handcrafted in the Breguet tradition, ensuring both visible and hidden elements receive the utmost attention to detail. The sapphire-crystal back of the white gold case reveals the platinum weight, the exquisite Côtes de Genève decoration, polished screws, and chamfered edges of the movement.
Each watch bears its number, engraved around the gold rim, underscoring Breguet’s commitment to unique craftsmanship.
The new Reine de Naples 8918 is a testament to Breguet’s dedication to celebrating femininity through exceptional watchmaking. Its fresh mint green shade, combined with the intricate details and advanced movement, makes it a perfect accessory for women who appreciate both beauty and precision.
