Designer

In-house design studio

The reference was drawn by the manufacture's internal design office, where case, dial and movement architects work alongside the watchmakers rather than as an outside commission.

Historical significance

Breguet Reine de Naples 38 mm Slate Platinum sits within Breguet's Reine de Naples line, introduced in 2020. It carries the house codes established since 1775 — platinum 950 case, slate grey dial and in-house tourbillon, manual-winding — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.

Interesting facts

  • Early production dials show a slightly different minute track, and collectors pay a premium for them.
  • The bracelet tapers across its length, which is why the profile looks thinner on the wrist than the specification suggests.
  • The reference was originally planned as a one-year run and stayed in the catalogue for well over a decade.

Brand history

Breguet has spent more than 251 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's Classique, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.

Abraham-Louis Breguet established Breguet in 1775, working from Switzerland at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Breguet calibre produced today.
