Luxury watchmaker Breguet is repeating its participation in the Only Watch auction, a charity event organised by the Only Foundation.
This exceptional auction featuring one-of-a-kind models from several watch brands will take place this November at Palexpo, Geneva.
On this occasion, Breguet will present a one-off version of its Marine Hora Mundi model. Launched in March 2022, this watch combines technical sophistication with aesthetic appeal.
This Breguet-patented mechanism is the only device serving to change time zone at a single click – a technical feat made possible by handling the pusher and crown.
After setting the first city, the time and the date, the watch wearer need only then set the second city. The timepiece’s mechanism calculates the time and date in the latter using a clever system of cams, hammers and an integrated differential. After that, simply pressing the pusher is enough to move from one end of the planet to the other without disturbing the precise running of the watch, says Breguet.
"For Breguet, luxury is in the details – which is notably why the Breguet hours and minutes hands are enhanced with red luminescent material recalling the Only Watch 2023 colours – a reference also featured on the trapeze-shaped hour-markers and on the anchor located at 6 o'clock, indicating the reference city. In a nod to the Only Foundation, the city of Paris has been replaced by the principality of Monaco in red," it says.
