Breguet
This book accompanies an exhibition at the Louvre. It is dedicated to the life, career and scientific legacy of Breguet, the celebrated clockmaker, physicist and inventor. He a master in his art, solicited by the most exclusive clients of his time such as Marie-Antoinette, Napoleon, Josephine and Talleyrand. Breguet initiated modern watch-making by inventing a series of mechanisms patented in his name, which include the most famous tourbillon clock and the self-winding mechanism especially conceived for Marie-Antoinette. This most famous watch, finished after Marie-Antoinette's death only, had disappeared for centuries. It was found under mysterious circumstances a few weeks ago only and is represented for the first time in this book.

Breguet
Founded in 1775 by Abraham-Louis Breguet, the firm of Breguet has occupied a unique position in the field of prestige watchmaking. Considered the greatest watchmaker of all time, Abraham-Louis Breguet was the father of modern watchmaking, an innovator in both the technical and aesthetic fields. A work of reference containing a wealth of previously unpublished information, this is also a sumptuous art book, distinguished by the elegance of its design and the excellence of its illustrations. In addition, the author skillfully combines the histories of art, technical developments, politics and economics to create an appealing and accessible narrative. Over 500 illustrations present a visual history of the principal creations produced by the Breguet workshops over the last two hundred and twenty years. Many of the pieces illustrated are held in private collections and are photographed here for the first time.
