專家說明

According to the Archives of Montre Breguet, the present watch was sold to Monsieur Ch. Duverdy on 17 March 1864 for 1,200 Francs.

The movement is fitted with a high quality calibrated and counterpoised straight line lever escapement, exposed ruby pallets and moustache-shaped fork tail, temperature-compensating bimetallic balance with gold adjustment screws and Breguet balance spring, all-or-nothing type repeating mechanism activated by a slide at 2 o’clock. The going train is jewelled to the third wheel and the repeating train is fully jewelled.

This is a particularly well-finished watch for the period and a fine example of the timepieces being sold by the House of Breguet in the second half of the 19th century.
