A historically interesting pocket watch. The movement and the dial with the elegant, applied Breguet numbers were sold in 1927 to the jeweler Roznaés, located in the famous Rue de la Paix in Paris. At the request of the customer, the jeweler made a high quality platinum case with sapphires on the rim. An exceptionally attractive piece, reminiscent of the early Art Deco watches of the Cartier company.
