Exquisite layout to see how Breguet handed down how to interpret the beauty of machinery
Breguet, spanning two centuries, has a high reputation in the watch industry and is known as the “father of modern watchmaking.” Breguet enjoys more than 70% of the inventions in the industry. Technical inventions such as tourbillon, Breguet hairspring, parachute shock absorbers, etc., all originated from Breguet. As Breguet’s iconic series, the Tradition series combines classic and avant-garde ingeniously, boldly presenting the structure of the movement on the front of the dial, allowing us to see the beauty of mechanical operation. At the same time, the series inherited the classic style and design elements of Breguet, providing urban elites with a timepiece with exquisite appearance and excellent performance.

Source of inspiration
Breguet’s first Tradition watch was launched in 2005, drawing inspiration from the brand’s historical timepiece-Subscription pocket watch. After spending two years in Switzerland at the peak of the French Revolution, Mr. Abraham-Louis Breguet began to re-operate the Breguet workshop located on the clock embankment of the Isla de Cité in Paris in the spring of 1795.
In order to attract new customers, he invented a timepiece that was extremely simple and extremely reliable. Sure enough, with its individual design and high cost performance, Subscription pocket watches were favored by people at that time. The Tradition series is inspired by the subscription-ordered pocket watch movement, and the classic movement structure of historical timepieces returns.
This year, Breguet’s Tradition series launched three new timepieces-Tradition handed down series 7597 date retrograde watch, Tradition handed down series 7097 automatic retrograde second hand watch, Tradition handed down series 7038 ladies watch, what we see is Among them, the 7597 date retrograde watch rose gold.
This Tradition series 7597 date retrograde watch has a diameter of 40 mm and is made of 18K rose gold.
There is a crown at 3 o’clock on the side of the case, which is engraved with the classic Breguet logo “B”. The wearer can adjust the time by rotating the crown.
In addition, the case has a screw-in regulator at 10 o’clock, which can be used to set the date directly.
The highlight of this watch is the special layout of the dial. The watch is presented with an off-centre variable dial display. The hour and minute display is located at the 12 o’clock position on the dial, leaving more space for the large dial. The hour and minute display plate is decorated with Paris nail pattern, and is matched with Roman numeral hour markers and Breguet hands, which is very beautiful.
The symmetrical dial layout shows Breguet’s special presentation of aesthetics. The 4 o’clock position is a pendulum mechanism, equipped with the famous “parachute” shock absorber (Pare-chute). For symmetry, the 8 o’clock position is equipped with The center wheel of the same size of the balance mechanism, the center of the dial is a large barrel. On the whole, this watch presents the beauty of balance and symmetry in its sophisticated movement structure.
In addition, the retrograde date display setting is very clever, located between 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock. The hand of the date display is designed in multiple levels, which is more obvious from the side, ensuring that it can cross over the movement parts during retrograde.
The watch is equipped with a crocodile leather strap with a gold pin buckle, which is consistent with the overall elegant and simple style of the watch.
The movement is equipped with a 505Q self-winding movement, equipped with a reverse linear lever escapement, a silicon pallet, and a silicon Breguet hairspring, which can provide a power reserve of 50 hours when fully wound. Turning to the back of the wholesale watches replica, you can see a very special gold oscillating weight. Its design style is derived from the famous movement in history, and it is polished to make it more refined. Between running, beautiful.
Ingenuity and meticulous craftsmanship, I have to say that Breguet’s rigorous attitude and watchmaking craftsmanship in watchmaking are always amazing. The Tradition series is presented with a unique design. From the front, you can have a panoramic view of the mechanical structure of the movement motherboard, allowing us to see Breguet’s profound historical heritage and excellent watchmaking strength.
