The presentation of this legendary Grande Complication timepiece was subject to a private event attended by an estimated 60 VIP guests. The evening was the occasion for Breguet to talk about the privileged relationship between Abraham-Louis Breguet and the last Queen of France, a great admirer of the watchmaker’s work and one of its most devoted clients.
To do so, Breguet invited celebrated presenter, actor and watch enthusiast, Nicholas Parsons, to co-host the event. Mr. Parsons shared with guests his experience with the Marie-Antoinette watch and referenced the highly-rated documentary “The Incredible Story of Marie Antoinette’s Watch,” which was aired on BBC4 in December 2016.
