What is the oldest wristwatch?
1 Answer

The oldest wristwatch does not have a name. Delivered in 1812, it was created by Abraham-Louis Breguet for Caroline Murat, the queen of Naples and Napoleon Bonaparte’s sister. The watchmaker crafted many timepieces for the French court, including for Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Find a large selection of Breguet watches on 1stDibs.
