About Breguet Watches

Breguet watches was founded in 1775 by Abraham-Louis Breguet in Paris, France, and quickly gained the grace of kings, queens and country leaders. The Breguet watch company continues to demonstrate its skills in fine and complicated watch making within the watch world. Breguet is regarded as the innovator of invention of new technologies and manufacturing techniques. In 1801 Breguet Watches patents the "Tourbillon" regulator. The Tourbillon movement was devised by the company founder Abraham-Louis Breguet commencing a cultural heritage that continues today. The Tourbillon compensates for differences in rate caused by a watch adopting different positions. The principle is to mount the balance and escapement in a rotating cage. The balance and escapement rotate around their common axis covering all positions to average out the errors.

In 1815, the Breguet Watch Company makes their final adjustments to the marine chronometer, paving the way for the creation of their famous Marine Chronograph and the ladies Breguet Marine Chronograph watch collections.

Each Breguet watch has manually engine-turned "guilloche" dials which feature the signature Breguet hollow eccentric moon hands and distinctive numerals, combining function with elegance and bearing a secret Breguet signature. Another distinction is the coined edges on the case edge, otherwise known as the "case-band fluting" that adorns each Breguet watch.
