Posted under Breguet

        Created in 1775 by Abraham Louis Breguet also known as the father of horology, Breguet is ever since a pillar of the fine watch-making worldwide and the only brand which constantly raises the standards by which all the other watchmakers are judged. Far from being just prestigious European watch-making brand, Breguet also stands as a creator of cultural-bound timepieces which break the boundaries becoming genuine objects of art that perpetually reaffirm its distinguished linage. And we wouldn’t say it all abut this brand if we wouldn’t mention a few of its patented innovations – the first Tourbillon, shock-absorbing system, or oil-free escapement, and without naming some of its famous clients: Napoleon Bonaparte, Alexander Dumas, Queen Marie-Antoinette, Winston Churchill and many other princes, sultans or members of the aristocracy who have relied on their personal Breguet.

        Through the years Breguet has always been able to revive classic timepieces, but also to enrich its collections with new innovative pieces remarkable for their high-quality, exquisite luxury and sophistication, both modern but also rooted in the brand’s historical and cultural legacy and Breguet Heritage Tourbillon Watch is another remarkable proof of craftsmanship and dedication which extends the Breguet array of tourbillon chronographs.

        Breguet Heritage Tourbillon Watch features the “Pomme” shaped emblematic Breguet blue fire roasted hour hands, and fluted case-band along with a tonneau-shaped classy platinum case.

        The skilled Breguet crafters have created a two-axed, intricate dial manufactured from 18 karat silvered gold, which reveals the meticulously hand engraved guilloche pattern elaborated on the timepiece’s rose engine. As another elegant feature of design we can mention the Roman numeral chapters that were carved in one piece and, then attentively applied, the Tourbillon Bridge which harmoniously completes the stylish design of the dial while serving as “VI” numeral.

        The timepiece is animated by a 187H Caliber which confers it hour and minute functions also, located at 6 o’clock there is a small second counter which partially reveals the watch’s exquisite 187H Caliber, hand wound movement, embellished by Breguet artisans according to the requirements of “haute de gamme” tradition. Breguet Heritage Tourbillon Watch has a power reserve of over two days and it is completed by a black hand-sewn elegant crocodile strap.
