This November, Sotheby’s will pay tribute to the phenomenal legacy of Abraham-Louis Breguet (1747–1823), the most important and influential watchmaker in the history of horology, with a dedicated auction celebrating the 250th anniversary of the foundation of Breguet in Paris in 1775.
This landmark event, the largest auction of Breguet timepieces in a quarter of a century, will feature many of the brand’s most stellar examples of Abraham-Louis Breguet’s superior mastery in watchmaking, ground-breaking imagination and innate sense of horological innovation. Curated in collaboration with Montres Breguet SA and Mr. Emmanuel Breguet, Vice President, Head of Patrimony and descendant of founder Abraham-Louis Breguet, the auction will spotlight the key chapters of the brand’s long and illustrious history, offering a mix of pocket watches, wristwatches and clocks.
The sale will take place as part of Sotheby’s Luxury Sales in Geneva, alongside Sotheby’s bi-annual flagship Important Watches live auction.
