Breguet ReinedeNaples Queen of Naples series 8967 watch, with blue curled dial and indigo strap, interpreting the blue of the sky.
  The Breguet ReinedeNaples Queen of Naples series presents a new contemporary work. This new steel watch features a blue lacquered dial and a matching tannin strap. The ReinedeNaples Queen of Naples series 9767 watch follows the iconic goose egg-shaped case of the series. This watch continues the Breguet watchmaking tradition, using the self-winding movement independently developed by the Breguet watch factory, which naturally moves with time.

  The ReinedeNaples Queen of Naples series 8967 watch dial has a unique style, with dark blue lacquered surface and turquoise blue curls, stand out, just like the starry and beautiful night sky. In order to present this unique effect, the master craftsman needs to apply a transparent lacquer on the surface of the dark material that has not yet solidified. Under this technique, the two colors fuse with each other to naturally form a unique picture effect.
  The top and bottom of the dial are decorated with Breguet digital hour markers ’12’ and ‘6’, and the digital surface is painted with white reliefs. The eccentric small dial at 6 o’clock has the same goose egg shape as the case. The meticulously carved lines diverge outward from the center, and the ends of the lines are diamond-shaped faceted patterns polished by silver plating. To facilitate accurate reading at night, the pointer is coated with dark blue luminous material. In addition, the Breguet signature and the unique number of the watch are located between 9 and 12 o’clock.

  The ReinedeNaples Queen of Naples 8967 watch has a steel case with a delicate coin trim on the outer edge. Its exquisite overall shape, crown at 4 o’clock and ingenious lug design all reveal the unique femininity and ingenious design of this model.

  Through the transparent sapphire glass case back, the movement 591C and the gold engraved oscillating weight are all at a glance. The silicon material has non-magnetic characteristics. The silicon escapement and silicon hairspring ensure accurate and reliable movement of the movement. The frequency of the movement is as high as 4 Hz. This self-made movement consists of 169 parts, each of which has been carefully retouched by Breguet watchmakers. The ReinedeNaples Queen of Naples series 8967 watch has successfully passed the timing accuracy test in 6 different directions, and is waterproof to a depth of 30 meters.

Queen exclusive watch

  During the reign of Napoleon Bonaparte’s sister Naples Queen Caroline Murat, she encouraged the development of art, ordering no less than 30 timepieces from Breguet throughout her life. In 1810, the Breguet watchmaking workshop on the embankment of Paris began to create an unprecedented timepiece for the Queen of Naples: a watch that could be worn on the wrist, and the world’s first known watch was born. Breguet delivered the finished product in 1812. The piece was returned to Breguet for maintenance in 1849 and 1855, and its historical records and design features were fully included in the Breguet historical archives. But unfortunately, there is no information on the current destination of this watch. Its oblong case shape and silver guilloché dial are quite exquisite and elegant. In addition, the watch is also equipped with three complex functions of timekeeping device, moon phase profit and loss display and thermometer, and a strap woven with hair and gold thread to admire the wrist.

What is TimetoMove: Last year, the Swatch Group announced its withdrawal from Baselworld 2019. Then from May 14th to 16th this year, six high-end brands under the Swatch Group: Breguet, Harry Winston, Blancpain, Jaquet Droz, Glashütte Original Omega OMEGA jointly held a new product launch exhibition in Switzerland to display brand new models of this year. At the same time, nearly 200 media from all over the world are invited to participate.

Among many luxury goods, watches and clocks have their unique qualities. The delicate pointer ticks and rotates day and night, seemingly simple, but behind it is a sophisticated and precise instrument.

 A Swiss magazine recently launched the country’s watch richest list. People can see that behind the well-known watches such as Patek Philippe and Vacheron Constantin, the legends of the centuries-old watch family that ‘Houmen is like the sea’.

Stern Family and Patek Philippe

 At the World Watch Fair Basel in Switzerland in 2008, two young boys aged five or six appeared on the booth. Patek Philippe’s future heirs will be born among them. Their father is the company’s CEO, Terry Stern, and his grandfather is the chairman of the board, Philip Stern.

 Patek Philippe ranked first in the world watch classification. It is worth mentioning that Patek Philippe is the only family-owned independent watchmaker in Geneva, Switzerland, which has been passed down for 4 generations.

 ‘When I was a kid, there were a lot of family businesses in the Swiss watchmaking industry,’ said Philip Stern. ‘But all of a sudden they disappeared, almost at the same time, from 1975 to 1985.’ During this period, Swiss watches were challenged by Japanese electronic quartz watches. The global market share of Swiss watches has fallen from 43% to 15%. At that time, Patek Philippe was in trouble because of lack of funds, the Stern brothers came to solve the problem, and at the same time obtained a majority stake in Patek Philippe.

 After that, the Stern family radically reformed Patek Philippe. One was to hire a professional management team to take care of the company’s affairs, and the other was to rely on Jaeger-LeCoultre to produce semi-finished watch movements to reduce its dependence on the outside world. How did the Stern family pass on from generation to generation and continue the myth for 80 years? The answer is to let the successors start at the grassroots level and work steadily. With their talents and qualifications, they become the company’s top managers.

Hayek and the Swatch Group

 In June 2010, an 82-year-old man died of a heart attack in his office in Bern, Switzerland. The old man’s departure regrets the entire watch industry, because he is the founder of the Swatch Group, Nicolas Hayek, who once saved the Swiss watch industry.

 In the 1970s and 1980s, the Swiss watch industry was in crisis. Hayek merged and reorganized SSIH, Switzerland’s largest and third world watchmaker, with ASU AG, the world’s largest watch parts manufacturer, and renamed the company the Swatch Group. Hayek’s strategic launch of Swatch watches has played a decisive role in the revival of the Swiss watch industry. Unlike those heavy traditional watches that represent wealth and authority, Swatch watches are simple, beautiful, lightweight, and versatile. In addition, the Swatch Group also uses plastic to make straps, which was unimaginable before.

 Swatch updates the watch style every year, invites famous artists to design, and strives to be at the forefront of fashion trends. At the same time, the Hayek family also completed the new and old alternation. Hayek handed over the role of CEO to his son Nicholas Jr. in 2002, and his daughter Naira is also a member of the company’s board of directors.

 Today, the Hayek family is a well-known family in Switzerland, ranking third on the rich list, and the Harvard Business Review magazine praises him as a ‘genius business celebrity.’

Santos Family Foundation and Parmigiani

In the recently launched Swiss watch family rich list, the Randot family tops the list with the strength of the Sandos Foundation.

The Santos Foundation was founded by painter and sculptor Edward Santos in 1964 and has now become a well-known equity investment institution in Switzerland. Novartis and Hermes are the two major companies it controls.

How does the Sandos Foundation relate to clocks? This must be talked about Michel Parmigiani, founder of Parmigiani, Switzerland’s top watch brand. Michele founded his own watchmaking studio in Fleurier, Switzerland in 1976, to provide independent design for big brands, and thus met Pierre, the senior ‘player’ and the fourth generation of the Sandos Foundation. · Randot.

Subsequently, the ‘dark period’ of Swiss watches came, just as Michelle was hit, the Santos Foundation decided to fund Michelle to establish an independent watch brand. Subsequently, Parmigiani was born, and in just a few years was among the world’s top watches. Even, Michelle and Randot teamed up to create a watch name Fleurier. Since the rise of Parmigiani, many famous watch brands have also migrated there.

It is these rich families that have supported the heritage and prosperity of the Swiss watch industry. It is also by virtue of watch and clock, medicine, machinery, food and other major industries that Switzerland, a country with only 8 million people, ranks sixth in Europe in terms of economic scale.
