White mother-of-pearl dial, individually numbered and signed Breguet, alligator strap harmonised with the dial’s hue. Off-centred hour circle at 6 o’clock. Blued steel Breguet hands with eccentric moon-cut tip.

Self-winding

A.-L. Breguet was the first to discover, through his oscillating platinum-weight watch, a formula which would produce a reliable automatic watch. Breguet sold one of his first self-winding watches to Queen Marie-Antoinette.
