With Alfihar we had an appointment with Mr Emmanuel Breguet himself and we had the pleasure to take some photos of some watches. 

Here is the Tradition Seconde Rétrograde 7035 250th Collection. 

The good point is the case size: Well done, the 37 mm diameter. For such a watch I am not far from thinking it is the ideal size. 

Then, the superb enamel grand feu guilloché blue dial: Exquisite. 

The downside,? The case thickness... 12, 6 mm. 2 mm thinner would have been better, in my opinion. 

The mixed feeling? The automatic movement. I prefer manual winding movements, especially for such a watch. BUT the rotor is nicely shaped, reminding the first Breguet rotors. 












As for a comparison, here is Marie Antoinette's watch ( the perfect re edition ) I could see at the Manufacture in 2019... Same rotor ( different size, though ). 



That Tradition is one of my favorite watch from the 175th Anniversary collection. The other one which intrigued me a lot was the " Souscription ". I will come back to it, even if I didn't have the time to take some photos of it. 

Best,

Nicolas

About the Breguet Ref. 250thAnniversary

The Breguet 250th Anniversary reference commemorates the birth year of Abraham-Louis Breguet. This limited edition series was introduced to honor the founder's legacy and the brand's heritage of horological innovation. It represents a significant commemorative release, often featuring design elements that pay homage to historical Breguet timepieces, distinguishing it from standard production models through its specific aesthetic and limited availability. These anniversary editions are typically sought after for their historical context and the craftsmanship associated with special Breguet releases.

This particular reference features a round case, often crafted from precious metals, housing a finely finished mechanical movement. The case diameter is typically in a classic size, suitable for a dress watch. The crystal protecting the dial is sapphire, providing clarity and scratch resistance. The movement within is a testament to Breguet's traditional watchmaking, offering a power reserve consistent with high-quality mechanical calibers.

Collectors are drawn to the 250th Anniversary edition for its direct connection to the brand's origins and its status as a special commemorative piece. It appeals to those who appreciate historical significance and limited production runs. The watch fits into the broader Breguet catalog as a tribute piece, distinct from the brand's contemporary collections, and often serves as a focal point for collectors interested in the brand's heritage and special editions.
