Reine de Naples Sonnerie 8978
Ringing out on the hour with two strikes repeated three times, the sonnerie au passage is the Grande Complication that this watch houses.
For greater discretion, a pusher at 2 o’clock deactivates this function. The movement in its oval shape has been entirely created by the Breguet Manufacture. It has been engraved and decorated by hand. Aesthetically, a white mother-of-pearl dial decorates the white gold case, whose bezel is entirely set with diamonds. The hammers for the striking mechanism, with a diamond between them to indicate the engagement of the sonnerie au passage, are visible above the dial at 11 and 1 o’clock. A bird appears on the back, represented by the decoration of the caseback, the movement and the oscillating weight.
