The Breguet Reine de Naples 8998 Day/Night is a poetic masterpiece — a timepiece that perfectly unites mechanical innovation and feminine elegance. Crafted in 18K white gold, its signature oval case is surrounded by 143 brilliant-cut diamonds (approx. 1.45 ct), with a pear-cut diamond (0.26 ct) set into the crown, gleaming beautifully against the black satin strap.

Its most captivating feature lies on the dual-layer dial: one silvered gold dial displays the hours and minutes, while the upper lapis lazuli disk illustrates the celestial transition between day and night. Mother-of-pearl clouds, gold stars, and a handcrafted titanium moon create a miniature cosmos, enhanced by the visible balance wheel bridge that connects the worlds of art and horology.

Powered by the Caliber 78CS automatic movement with a 57-hour power reserve, the Reine de Naples 8998 embodies the grace of fine jewelry and the precision of Swiss watchmaking — a truly enchanting creation.
