Breguet Classique

Breguet makes the best dials in the biz. Yeah, we said it. Their signature engine-turned dials, individually numbered and hand-finished, are simply beautiful works of art. You’d be hard-pressed to find such fine attention to detail in a watch costing many times what, say, a time-only or time-and-date model from the brand’s Classique line trades for. Take this particular Classique, a Reference 3210BA/11/264 is housed in a 31mm 18K yellow gold coin-edged case with a sapphire crystal, a signed, sapphire cabochon crown, and a polished bezel. It features a stunning silver guilloche dial with black 'Roman' indices, a blued steel ‘Breguet’ handset, and an outer minute track. Powered by a Breguet hand-cranking movement, it comes paired to a leather strap with a yellow gold Breguet pin buckle. Despite this piece wearing slightly on the smaller side, this piece is suitable for a wide variety of wrist sizes - perfect for dressy occasions or someone who prefers a more traditional dress watch size. If you appreciate classic watchmaking, this is the perfect watch. A combination of a reliable manual dress presence with beautiful dial finish and an elevated case. This is the epitome of what a dres watch should be. This masterpiece is waiting patiently for its next owner — preferably, someone who appreciates the craftsmanship and patience necessary to execute such a nuanced dial.
