With Breguet service receipt dated 8 September 2020, the Chronograph Marine reference 3428 is the perfect combination between the functionality typical of a sport watch and the complicated elegance of Haute Joaillerie.


The present watch features Breguet's  caliber Cal 567 manual winding movement, an 18k yellow gold case and a 48 baguette diamond set bezel. The dial is constructed of solid gold with silvered finish and “secret” signature on both sides of the “VI” and with hand-applied guilloche. The dial shows the date at the 3 o’clock register, day at the 9 o’clock register with the month and leap year indicator displayed in the 12 o’clock register.


The phases of the moon are displayed on a rotating disc in an aperture at 6 o’clock. The minute repeating function is triggered using the slide of the case. The precious stones have been chosen for their high quality, color and size to give an overall harmonious look to this masterpiece of modern horology.


The watch is presented here at a mere fraction of its original retail price, offering excellent value to the discerning collector.
