In the late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries the legendary Swiss watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet attained a phenomenal amount of horological achievements: he assisted in the development of the automatic watch, created advancements in the lever escapement, designed an early shock protection device, and last, but certainly not least, he invented the tourbillon.

From this pioneering spirit comes the Breguet Marine Chronograph, a sumptuous timepiece of gorgeous luxury with classic stylings. This watch’s stellar polished 18K white gold case measures 42 mm in diameter and rests upon a brand new black leather strap with a deployant buckle.

Other case features include a terrific 300 m / 30 atm water resistance, a screw-down winding crown, a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and an exhibition case back that allows you to witness the movement in action.

Speaking of the movement, this watch is driven by the Breguet 583q/1 caliber, a self-winding automatic movement that possesses 24 jewels and delivers a 48-hour power reserve.

The hand-engraved (engine-turned) silver dial catches the eye and will certainly serve as a conversation piece. Classic luminous and blued Breguet hands are prominent against the cool beauty of the dial.

In addition, there are applied blued steel Roman numerals upon the hour and a minute track with Arabic numerals. There is a small seconds subdial at 9 and a date window at 6. Chronograph functions include a central seconds hand (blued), a minute hand (silver with luminous tip), and a 12-hour counter at 6.

Classic stylings and expert artistry and craftsmanship come together famously in this Breguet Marine Chronograph, and we are confident that it will make an excellent addition to your collection.
