This new model from Breguet features a white mother-of-pearl dial with delicate red accents that celebrate love. The inner bezel is hand-set with 66 rubies, complemented by a bezel set with countless diamonds and a crown adorned with a cabochon-cut ruby. The hour and minute hands are also in a passionate red, while discreet red heart-shaped indexes indicate the hours on an off-center chapter ring, perfectly complementing the alligator strap. The lugs and folding buckle are also adorned with hand-set diamonds.

Movement
At the heart of the 33mm oval case is the 586/1 automatic movement, made of 180 components, with a 38-hour power reserve and a frequency of 3 Hz. It features a balance spring made of silicon with various properties. Silicon is not only resistant to corrosion and wear, but is also unaffected by magnetic fields, improving the watch's precision. In keeping with Breguet tradition, every part of the caliber, even the hidden parts, is meticulously finished by hand. The white gold case features a sapphire caseback revealing the platinum oscillating weight, Côtes de Genève decoration, and beveled movement.

The Queen's Watch
Napoleon Bonaparte's youngest sister, Caroline Murat, became a major patron of the brand during her time as Queen of Naples, purchasing more than 30 pocket watches and clocks from Breguet. Breguet, a watchmaker based in Paris's Quai de l'Horloge, began work on a watch for the Queen of Naples in 1810. It was a timepiece designed to be worn on the wrist—the world's first wristwatch. Breguet's archives, documenting its delivery in 1812 and its repairs in 1849 and 1855, offer insight into the watch's history and the characteristics of a timepiece no longer in existence. With a slender case and a silver-plated, guilloched dial, it was an extremely intricately crafted wristwatch incorporating complications such as a repeater, a moon phase display, and even a thermometer. The bracelet was crafted from hair intertwined with gold thread.
