Notes

Breguet Since it was acquired by Swatch Group in 1999, Breguet faithfully perpetuates the exceptional heritage bequeathed by its founder, as it continues to create ever more fascinating timepieces combining technical complications and pure, refined aesthetics. The Manufacture?s objective for excellence is notably reached through considerable investments in the latest control technology and in Research and Development. Breguet is proud to use its expertise in the service of a noble cause. Designed in the grand tradition of exclusive Breguet timepieces, the model Classique Chronograph openworked 5284 is animated by an exceptional Hand-wound movement, calibre 533.2 SQ, originally known as 2310. This model is manifestly an exceptional watch; it is extremely rare for Breguet to produce limited editions and even more one-of-a-kind pieces. Painstakingly finished and elaborately decorated by hand, the unique character of this timepiece?s design embodies a full measure of respect for high watchmaking centuries-old values.
