Notes

Quartz-powered Breguet watches are extremely scarce and to the best of our knowledge, this is the first time ever that a quartz Breguet of this kind is presented at auction. The fact that the present wristwatch embarks not one but two independent quartz movements signed Breguet is a feat on its own. The Certificate by Mr. Emmanuel Breguet confirms the sale of this watch on the 1st of December, 1984, for the sum of 23,000 French Francs ex. tax.
