A big name for a big watch is perfectly fitting. Unveiled late in 2020, this Breguet Classique Double Tourbillon is crafted in platinum and boasts a sapphire box-like crystal to offer extreme transparency from all angles when viewing the highly complicated skeletonized movement. It even has a sapphire dial and features an outer chapter flange for the Breguet Roman numerals, so that the view inside is unobstructed. The manually wound Caliber 588N movement consists of 738 hand-finished components and is numbered and signed. It features two tourbillon escapements (that compensate for errors in timekeeping due to the e!ects of gravity on the watch when it is in certain positions on the wrist) opposite one another that are mounted on a revolving hand-engraved main plate. This means that the tourbillon escapements are not only constantly moving on their own axis at a speed of one minute, but also constantly moving around the dial - making a complete revolution every 12 hours. Similarly, the interconnected regulating organs make a double rotation on the dial, all translating to a beautiful dance on the wrist. The back of the watch is engraved with the House on the Quai, the house in Paris where Abraham-Louis Breguet worked.

With roots in jewelry as well as watches, it is no surprise that the beauty evident in Breguet's pendants, earrings and necklaces has found its way to its timepieces. Adorned in jewels, the delicacy of these timepieces is mirrored by intricate mechanism. Fragility is only a façade, however, as durability distinguishes these diamond encrusted clockworks. Wearing a Breguet isn't solely practical, but for the expressive.The Crazy collection is a prime example of Breguet's command of passion. Notable within this is the Be Crazy wristwatch made with 18-carat white gold. Set in staggered rows with 56 baguette diamonds, the timepiece expands to suggest a floral opening, a field of bamboo or a lattice of illusion. Similarly striking, the L'Orangie wristwatch elevates the effective simplicity of a daisy chain to a bangle bedazzled by diamond flowers. Encased in 18-carat yellow gold, spessartine garnets, rubies, pink tourmalines and yellow sapphires pave pretty petals. Operation rival's opulence as the timepiece further features self-winding movement.
