No doubt - One of the most sought after Breguet watches ever released.

The Breguet brand offers watches of the highest quality matched with incredible style.

In the tonneau-shaped “Heritage” collection it is the Ref. 5497 that needs to be mentioned because of its refined dial design. The guilloché massive silver dial elegantly follows the curvature of the case and sapphire glass. The recessed round dial for the hour and minute hand and the opening for the tourbillon at the position of 6 o’clock give it additional depth.



The Roman numerals are cut out from one leaf of silver placed on top of the dial adding to the 3D-effect. The Roman numeral VI functions as the tourbillon bridge. A very elegant watch indeed.

The 5497 watch surrenders its tonneau shape to a tourbillon driven by a manually wound movement. Leaving aside the mechanism, the timepiece itself boasts a sophisticated design: curved on two axes to fit more than perfectly on the wrist, the case, here in platinum and typical of the collection, presents a recurring challenge to Breguet's watchmaking craftsmen and engineers.

The double camber, which demands great technical mastery, also applies to the dial. The basic Breguet calibre 187 has been modified and truncated to meet the requirements of this piece.The Heritage 5497 watch displays its functions on a costly face wrought in silvered gold. The spectacular play of materials and reliefs puts the tourbillon in perspective, highlights the least detail of styling and emphasizes the technicality of the piece.

The chapter ring has been painstakingly cut out and superimposed like delicate lacework on the cambered dial that has been engine-turned by hand. Made of a single piece, the tracery of Roman numerals subtly hugs the contours and intensifies the architecture of the object. The tourbillon bridge serves a dual purpose - it is also the roman numeral 6.

This watch is art for the wrist. This Tourbillon is produced in only a handful of pieces, cased in solid platinum.

Breguet's Classique 'Grandes Complications' models are a salute to the centuries-old union of peerless watch-making and mechanical mastery. This timepiece encompasses perfect day-to-day sophistication with a magnificent looking dial.

Even today, watchmakers approach this area of watchmaking with few illusions as to the magnitude of the challenge. Building a Grande Complication wristwatch confronts them with a maze of technical difficulties challenging both their skill and their powers of invention. Thinking and working in four dimensions, generations of Breguet watchmakers have driven their art to new heights turning out minute repeaters, perpetual calendar watches and tourbillon designs.

Owning a watch like this is a privilege afforded to very few collectors, since producing a watch like this requires a master to produce it.
