Breguet Watches


Born in Switzerland in 1747, Abraham-Louis Breguet pursued his career in Paris. He won fame as the creator of technical innovations, devising watches, clocks and chronometers that launched modern watchmaking. The slender blue-steel Breguet hands he designed, with their distinctive circles, have told the time on Breguet watches for two centuries. In that time, they have become symbols of Breguet’s craftsmanship.
Each Breguet watch is a mobile sculpture, created according to the eternal laws of time. Each dial is signed and each movement numbered, as is fitting for a masterpiece. And as with every work of art, the ingredients are patience, devotion and skill. Production is limited, because all the parts of every watch are finished and assembled by hand in the same way as they were made in the golden age of craftsmanship.
