Signed Leroy Élève de Breguet and displaying the same style elements as Abraham-Louis Breguet's Turkish watches, the present watch is a wonderful example of one of Breguet's timepieces sold under the name of his representative in Constantinople (see the previus lot in this auction, also for a note on "cabriolet" cases).
