The present Breguet Classique Perpetual Calendar ref. 5327 perfectly blends all the visual and technical codes the brand is known for. The striking hand-guilloché dial displays a large amount of information in a legible and elegant way.
The caliber 502 is tastefully hand-engraved throughout and provides the day of the week, the date, a month and leap year indicator, a moon-phase display and a power reserve.
The traditional Breguet casework exudes a royal presence, with thin elongated lugs and fluted case profiles. The present lot is furthermore accompanied by its original automatic winding presentation case, which conveniently prevents the calendar to be manually set when the timepiece is not worn for a while.
