However, most of the ladies clothing pockets are not designed to make the time who was not "wear time."About First Ladies only "watch" argument from France.In 1806, Napoleon's wife, Empress Josephine in divorce shortly before had ordered a watch specially made for the princess, 10 years later, the Queen of Naples issued an order to that time of the Breguet watch factory, designers can hope to form the basis bracelet , making a lightweight and accessories have the effect of "bracelet watch."Two years later, the watch only with some Byzantine scheduled to hand over, and become the basis for watches today "Reinede Naples".Naples Queen Caroline (Caroline Murat) is the youngest sister of Napoleon, has been all watch her "fans" from 1808-1814 in this short span of six years, she had Breguet factory custom 34 kinds of watches and clocks, in former custom watch, she could have imagined a tie at the waist "belt table," but because not convenient at the time, she finally came up with creative "bracelet table".
