The tourbillon reigns supreme on a minimalist dial.
The beauty of this timepiece relies on its clean lines, which give full emphasis to the tourbillon, off-centred to better attract the gaze.
Also, a graphic hand-bevelled tourbillon bar, topped by a spinel, is there to capture the attention. The same is for the blue Breguet hands – a sharp contrast to the perfect white of the enamelled dial.
This watch presents a layout that is reminiscent of those created by Breguet himself, who revelled in revolutionising the aesthetic codes governing the timepieces of his era.
The new Classique Tourbillon Extra-Plat Automatique 5367 with its “Grand Feu” enamel dial is available in rose gold or platinum versions, respectively fitted with a mahogany brown or blue alligator strap and both featuring a rhodium-plated movement.
