Breguet Classique
More actions
The Breguet Classique is the maison's dress collection, built almost entirely out of design codes traceable to Abraham-Louis Breguet himself. The caseband is finished with the fine grooves and double beading of the house's coin-edge fluting; the dial is engine-turned by hand on lathes cutting guilloché patterns such as clou de Paris and sunburst, a technique adopted partly to kill reflections off a metal dial plate. Slim open-tipped hands with a hollow eccentric moon near the point and the slanted Arabic Breguet numerals both date to around 1783, the secret signature etched into the dial and visible only in oblique light to 1795, and every watch carries its own number. Case sizes, complications and calibres vary widely across the collection's references. (Time and Watches; WorldTempus)
