Beautiful Breguet watch of Abraham Louis Breguet period from early 1800.
Diameter is 52mm.

According the certificate, the watch was purchased by to Monsieur Desoir on 10 Florial, An 10 (30 April of 1802).
The same watch is illustrated in George Daniels ‘The Art of Breguet’ (p.195, Breguet N 1369, sold equally in 1802).
