Breguet Heritage Silver Dial 18kt Rose Gold Diamond Brown Leather Men's Watch 3661BR12984DD00

I just opened the box and the watch is even prettier than the picture. The fit is great and it is very dressy looking.

Review by Brittany Walker, From United Kingdom Hemel Hempstead

Jaquet Droz's modern story began in 1989 when Investcorp, a Saudi-English company that already owned Breguet, Chaumet and Ebel, bought the rights to the name. A new line was conceived, designed, and launched by the makers behind the modern Breguet brand. In 1994 a few of Investcorp's people went independent, taking the two brands with them and eventually selling them to the Swatch Group in April 2000. Since then, the Swatch Group's main concern has been to restore the brand according to its famous roots and give it the attention it deserves. A few years later, the newly founded marque began doing what Pierre Jaquet Droz himself did in the 1700s: use the three surviving androids as a primary marketing tool to generate interest. Back in the days of Jaquet Droz, his son Henri-Louis, and Jean-Frederic Leschot (the lesser known party in the business), the interest thus raised was needed to sell their main products: small automatons, pocket watches and other unusual and unique mechanical treasures.
 

Today, the Swatch Group-owned brand headed up by Marc A. Hayek uses the three historical robots known as the Writer, the Draughtsman, and the Musician to attract interest in its luxury wristwatches, which have a b, highly recognizable brand identity and increasingly large focus on artisanal techniques.
 

Traveling salesmen
The trio of androids begun in 1774 by Pierre Jaquet Droz and continued by his son and Leschot were lost to the modern world after the company ceased trading in 1810 (due to the deaths of the father and son in 1790 and old age of Leschot) until 1906. It was in this year that the Neuchâtel Society of History and Archaeology bought them for 75,000 gold francs. Following restoration and a bit more travel, they reached their current home - the Museum of Art and History in Neuchâtel - in 1909, where they have remained since. They are activated every first Sunday of the month at 2:00, 3:00 and 4:00 pm so that visitors may see them in action.
During his active time, Jaquet Droz and his associates traveled with the three mechanical androids to pique the interest of prospective wealthy clients such as royal families. The well-traveled automatons amazed and confused their disbelieving audiences, and more than once were labeled as "witchcraft" with their life-mimicking movements. The Musician, who plays a real organ and actually creates the music written by Jaquet Droz by tapping the correct keys, even breathes (i.e., her chest unexpectedly and rhythmically moves underneath her dress).

Unique exhibition
Neuchâtel has now built an exhibition around the three androids in the canton's main three museums. The Musician, currently on view at the Musee International d'Horlogerie (MIH) in La Chaux-de-Fonds, joins the Writer in Le Locle's Musee d'Horlogerie Château de Monts and the Draughtsman in its original location in Neuchâtel along with hundreds of other exhibits originating in all three museums, from other lenders such as the Patek Philippe Museum and private collections to form one incredible artistic experience.
The exhibition will continue to run in this form until September 30. The original Jaquet Droz figures and others are activated according to a schedule that can be looked up at automatesetmerveilles.ch
