Tourbillon Extra-Plat 5367

The information displayed on the Classique Tourbillon Extra-Plat 536 has been deliberately reduced to the essentials, to draw attention towards the key element, the Tourbillon. Breguet has opted for a visual tourbillon bar angled by hand and topped by a spinel. Furthermore, the blue Breguet hands contrast against the white of the traditional enamel to ensure that the hours and minutes are perfectly legible. The hours chapter in Breguet Arabic numerals is off centered at 11 o’clock, in opposition to the tourbillon at 5 o’clock. This way of displaying information recalls the pocket watches created by A.-L. Breguet, who revolutionized the aesthetic conventions of the timepieces of his epoch.
