In 1794, Abraham-Louis Breguet launched the concept of the "Souscriptions watch". Breguet granted selected customers the opportunity to secure a watch in advance of purchase. Prospective customers paid a deposit when they placed their order and settled the balance when they collected their watch. Breguet himself was thus able to obtain liquid assets to produce the watches in peace and without financial pressure. To honour and update their centuries-old tradition, in 1991 Breguet produced a new set of Souscriptions watches consisting of:1 pocket watch with automatic movement, date display, moon phase and 45-hour power reserve indicator and1 wristwatch with automatic movement with platinum oscillating weight, minute repeater and perpetual calendar.These watches were made in a limited edition of only 300 pieces, the set offered here bears the number 8. The pocket watch was inspired by a historic Lepine sold by Breguet to the Duc de la Force on 31 December 1791. The wristwatch bridges the gap to our time and represents today's version of this historic watch. The two museum-quality watches come in a lockable burl wood box with an integrated watch winder. Additional watchmaker's tools (setting pins, screwdriver, magnifying glass, polishing rod, replacement strap made of black reptile leather), a detailed documentation and description of the watches by the Breguet company as well as 2 original certificates of the watches are enclosed.Provenance: Purchased 07/1991 from Beyer, Zurich, for CHF 450,000.
