The fake Reine de Naples 8917 is a first copy take on Breguet's oval ladies' dress watch, made for shoppers who want the curved silhouette and soft pearl dial without paying boutique money. It answers the question most buyers ask first: can a replica really capture that oval case, the offset crown and the balanced dial of the original? In this version it can, because the case profile, lug position and strap taper all follow the genuine layout rather than a generic round-watch template.
Key Features
- Oval case shape that mirrors the original Reine de Naples outline
- Offset crown at the four o'clock position, as on the genuine piece
- White mother-of-pearl style dial with Roman numerals and a small seconds subdial
- Optional stone-set bezel with evenly placed, hand-finished settings
- Automatic self-winding movement with a smooth sweeping seconds hand
- Sapphire-coated crystal with anti-reflective treatment for easy reading
- Leather strap cut to the original width and taper, with a folding clasp
- Arrives in a presentation box with a polishing cloth
Materials and Specs
The case is machined from 316L stainless steel, polished along the flanks and lightly finished on the back, then plated in a warm gold tone that holds up with ordinary care. The dial sits under a domed crystal, and the movement is an automatic calibre that winds from wrist motion and can also be hand-wound through the crown. Dimensions follow the 8917 footprint closely, so it wears like the real thing on a small or medium wrist instead of looking like a scaled-down trinket.
Shipping and Returns
Orders ship in plain outer packaging with tracking provided, and dispatch usually happens within a few business days. If the watch does not suit you, returns are accepted in unworn condition with the box and cloth included, and our support team will walk you through the process.
How close is the fake Reine de Naples 8917 to the original?
Very close in silhouette, dial layout and strap fit. The clearest differences are in movement decoration and in the weight of a solid-gold case, which a plated steel case cannot match.
Is it suitable for daily wear?
Yes. The automatic movement and leather strap are built for everyday use, but keep it away from swimming, showering and heavy knocks since the case is not rated for deep water.
What should I check when it arrives?
Confirm the crown pulls and sets cleanly, that the subdial and hour markers line up, and that the seconds hand sweeps without stutter. Also check the strap stitching and clasp tension before wearing it out.
