As a watchmaker and as the brand, Breguet has been at the forefront of the watch industry for preserving the art of mechanical watchmaking, ever since 1775.
The present watch would be a modern approach of what a perpetual calendar pocket watch should be. With an engine turned silver dial, Roman numerals and blue Breguet hands, the present perpetual calendar is utterly beautiful with its well balanced layout and symmetrical presentation. Featured in a sophisticated case of yellow gold, looking at the time with this watch is surely an elegant experience.
