The Classique reference 3355 embodies the perfect marriage of Breguet’s technical ingenuity and aesthetic refinement. At its heart lies the hand-wound calibre 558 SQ1, meticulously skeletonised to reveal the intricate architecture of the movement while showcasing the tourbillon – the very invention patented by Abraham-Louis Breguet in 1801 to counter the effects of gravity on timekeeping precision. The transparency of the openworked design not only highlights the virtuosity of the watchmakers but also offers a poetic glimpse into the living mechanics of horology’s most celebrated complication.

The platinum case retains the maison’s hallmark fluted band and elegant proportions, while the sapphire crystal back invites full appreciation of the calibre’s artistry.

The reference 3355 reaffirmed Breguet’s standing as a guardian of horological tradition and innovation alike.
