For Valentine’s Day 2025, Breguet introduces a timepiece that feels like a love letter in itself. The Reine de Naples 9915—limited to just 28 pieces—is the latest addition to the maison’s signature collection, blending high watchmaking with the kind of gem-setting that belongs in a jewelry vault.
At first glance, the dial plays with light like a well-cut diamond. A halo of pink sapphires and diamonds frames the mother-of-pearl surface, creating a soft gradient that leads to a heart-shaped cluster of rubies between six and nine o’clock—just enough asymmetry to keep things interesting. The bezel continues the theme, with diamonds meticulously set to catch every flicker of light. And then there’s the lug, covered in a snow-set array of diamonds—an intricate technique where gems of different sizes are arranged for maximum sparkle. A final flourish? The crown, topped with a cabochon-cut ruby.
Inside, Breguet keeps things just as polished. The Reine de Naples 9915 runs on the self-winding Calibre 537/3, a compact movement with a platinum oscillating weight that’s been hand-guilloché with a circular barleycorn motif. A 45-hour power reserve, a silicon balance spring, and an anchor built for precision and magnetic resistance make this as functional as it is beautiful.
For those who love a timepiece that merges technical excellence with sheer romance, this one’s a keeper. But with only 28 available, you might want to act fast.
