This Classique model has a beautiful dial with three different guilloche patterns. The hour-dial ring with Roman numerals and blued Breguet hands is eccentrically placed and stands out clearly from the background due to its slightly shimmering brushed surface. Above the 10 o'clock position is an aperture for the day of the week in German, and correspondingly at the 2 o'clock position is the aperture for the date. A semi-circular cut-out for the moon phase with a golden moon and stars against a blue background, as well as the moon age are located at 12 o'clock.
This is a classically designed timepiece with elegant proportions and a noble finish.


The Classique stands for the combination of master watchmaking with traditional values and features all the typical details that reflect the style of the Breguet brand. Particularly in character is the silver dial with its fine engine-turned pattern, the distinctive numerals and the striking blued steel hands that take their name from Breguet himself.
