BREGUET. (1747 – 1823.), the seminal work of lifelong Breguet collector David Lionel Salomons, the tome stands even today as one of the most comprehensive works on Breguet timepieces of the era.  The original edition was published in London in 1921.  Published 2 years later, this beautifully bound edition was likely sold at the Paris boutique, as evidenced by the business card found inside.  A wonderful and rare reference and a must have for any collector of Breguet timepieces.
