From 16 January to 12February 2012, Breguet is paying tribute to the Queen of Naples through an exhibition held in Geneva’s Cite du Temps and timed to coincide with the SIHH. This exhibition celebrates the 200th anniversary of the creation of the first wristwatch in horological history, ordered in 1810 by Caroline Murat, sister of Napoleon and Queen of Naples, and delivered in 1812. Moreover, Breguet is also taking the opportunity of this event to immortalize the 10th anniversary of its stellar Reine de Naples ladies’ watch collection. The exhibition in the Cite du Temps immerses visitors into a feminine atmosphere, where they gradually discover the history of this model and its fascinating mysteries.
