About the Breguet Tradition Tourbillon Ref. 7047

The Breguet Classique Grande Complication Tourbillon Messidor reference 7047 is a notable expression of traditional haute horlogerie, distinguished by its visible tourbillon regulator. This reference is part of Breguet's Classique collection, which emphasizes the brand's historical design codes and mechanical innovations. It stands out for its open architecture, allowing a clear view of the intricate mechanics, particularly the tourbillon, which appears to float without a visible upper bridge.

The timepiece features an 18k rose gold case with a diameter of 41 mm. It houses the manual-winding caliber 569, which provides a power reserve of 50 hours. The movement is protected by a sapphire crystal, and the watch offers water resistance up to 30 meters. The dial, in silver, is characterized by Breguet's signature guilloché patterns and blued steel hands.

This reference appeals to collectors who value mechanical complexity and traditional finishing techniques. Its design, with the prominent tourbillon, showcases Breguet's legacy in watchmaking. The Classique Grande Complication Tourbillon Messidor represents a significant piece within the brand's offerings for those interested in high-complication timepieces.

This takes the concept behind the Tradition and turns it upside down [nt]

No longer a watch any watchmaker can repair.

Handled the platinum once: a dream piece

In rg it will look even better, I guess ... more like an antique looking machine.

Yes, you are true, but my preference goes for the platinum. I will try to take some pictures next time I go to the Manufacture. [nt]

Don't get me wrong: platinum is also top!
