On 7 February 2026, the issuance entered public view during the 43rd Bal de Malte Suisse, held within the Bellevue Palace in Bern.
Located within the Swiss federal district and historically associated with diplomatic reception, the Bellevue Palace provided a setting aligned with protocol, continuity, and institutional presence.

The issuance brings together two parallel legacies: the 250-year heritage of Montres Breguet and the centenary of the Breguet XIV aircraft, linking horological tradition with a defining chapter of early international aviation through the Latécoère air routes.
Presented in support of the Hospital Service of the Order of Malta in Switzerland, its appearance situated horological heritage, aviation history, and humanitarian patronage within a single recorded moment.
