Time in the Breguet style
The C
LASSIQUE
watch is directly
inspired by the work of A.-L. Breguet.
It embodies the principles with
which he revolutionized watch
design: purity of form, harmony of
proportion and clarity of informa-
tion, reflecting the ordered beauty
of the movement within. Its features
are the hallmarks of the Breguet
style, from its finely-fluted caseband
to its hand-engraved “guilloché”
dial. With its strong personality,
your C
LASSIQUE
represents the ideal
face of time.
With his “chronomètre à doubles
secondes” or observation chrono-
meter, developed in 1820, A.-L. Breguet
anticipated the modern chronograph.
Later, with the watchmaker Fatton,
one of his most gifted pupils, our
founder built his inking chronograph,
which led to the term chronograph
from “chronos” meaning time and
“graphein”, to write. Your C
LASSIQUE
watch pays homage to these inspired
inventions and reflects our firm’s
long tradition of innovation in
high-quality chronographs.
