New Breguet 4746 Silicium images
Feb 14, 2007,09:23 AM
Hi Everyone,
I was able to get a chance recently to photograph a brand new Breguet 4746 that features a silicium gear and a new designed balance wheel.
I have concerns about the spread of the use of silicium due to its potential of destroying the romanticism of hand made parts and hand finishing of traditional timepieces - if such silicon based/manufactured parts become widespread.
Nevertheless, the Breguet here that feature this new part has an interesting purple tinge - may prove to be popular with collectors. Hope you like the images.
Cheers!
