This stunning vintage timepiece represents a rare and beautiful look at early 20th Century Art Deco inspired watchmaking from one of the world's greatest maisons Breguet. Fashioned from 18K white gold and adorned with 34 top-quality Breguet diamonds, two emeralds, and green enamel, this exquisite original Breguet white gold watch epitomizes sophistication and refined style. The diamonds radiate the expected brilliance and fire of authentic Breguet gems. The green enamel features a flowing, freeform design that beautifully enhances the emeralds' rich hue. Photos fail to capture the watch's true splendor. In fact, a similar example with the case number 773 was produced and sold to King Fouad I of Egypt, showing just how captivating this timepiece was for royalty of the era. For lovers of this roaring twenties period of design and fashion, the current lot is sure to offer a rare and beautiful glimpse into this bygone era.
