Breguet No. 765 is a split-seconds chronograph with a minute repeater, nicknamed "the Turnip," originally commissioned in 1890 by the 7th Duke of Marlborough, Winston Churchill's grandfather; the original remains in the family's collection at the Churchill War Rooms. (Breguet) Breguet built a visually faithful replica, without attempting the original's repeating chronograph movement, for Gary Oldman to wear as Churchill in Darkest Hour (2017), the role that won him the Best Actor Oscar.
