Tradition Seconde Retrograde 7037

Two compact novelties that bring the Tradition collection back to its roots. The watches come in 38 x 12.7 mm cases made of white gold or platinum. Both models retain the classic Breguet case with fluted sides and welded straight lugs. The dial, offset upwards, is crafted using the Grand Feu enamel technique. Arabic numerals replace the traditional Roman numerals on the dial.

Movement detail of Breguet Tradition Seconde Retrograde 7037

An impressive design touch - the movement is available in blue or black color. For a monochromatic appearance, rhodium plating is used on all moving parts of the mechanism. The cover of the winding barrel, adorned with guilloché, adds visual depth to the design. The watch is offered with a rubber strap matching the dial color.

Caliber 505 SR inside Breguet Tradition Seconde Retrograde 7037

Inside is the in-house caliber 505 SR (which looks like an antique watch mechanism but is equipped with many modern parts like a silicon balance spring). This mechanism operates at a frequency of 3 Hz and offers a 50-hour power reserve. It is wound by a central platinum rotor shaped like an arrow.

The approximate price of the model is CHF 45,200 for the white gold version and CHF 49,700 for the platinum case model.

An enlarged version of the model that has been in the Breguet lineup since 2015. The watch features a 40 x 11.8 mm case made of rose gold. The open mechanism is treated with a charcoal grey coating, and the functional elements match the case color.

Retrograde seconds scale of Breguet Tradition Seconde Rétrograde 7097

A new element in the design is the retrograde seconds scale, made of gold with sandblasted finishing. The innovation is that it no longer obscures the dial as before. As in previous models, the dial, equipped with blued steel hands, is crafted using the Grand Feu technique. This new model is offered with a grey calfskin strap reminiscent of nubuck.

Caliber 505 SR1 in Breguet Tradition Seconde Rétrograde 7097

The watch is powered by the caliber 505 SR1 (essentially the same mechanism as in previous models). It is driven by a white gold rotor with the Breguet logo, maintaining the same arrow shape. The approximate price of the model is CHF 43,200.

Tradition GMT 7067

The most spectacular novelty of the collection. The watch is presented in a platinum case measuring 40 x 12.1 mm. It is distinguished by a green dial with gradient enamel in the Grand Feu technique and Arabic numerals instead of Roman.

GMT subdial and day/night indicator on Breguet Tradition GMT 7067

Other features include a dark grey coating on the mechanism and a black subdial for GMT indication located at the "8 o'clock" position. A day/night indicator can be seen at the "10 o'clock" position, along with a button for adjusting the second time zone.

Caliber 507DRF inside Breguet Tradition GMT 7067

The watch is offered with a black rubber strap. Inside is the in-house caliber 507DRF, equipped with manual winding. This mechanism operates at a frequency of 3 Hz and offers a 50-hour power reserve. The approximate price of the model is CHF 62,800.

Tradition Seconde Rétrograde 7038

A compact women's novelty as a female version of the Seconde Retrograde model. The watch is presented in a white gold case measuring 37 x 11.6 mm. The bezel is set with 58 diamonds of classic cut. An additional 25 diamonds are used in the decoration of the white gold clasp, securing the watch's black fabric strap.

Black movement of Breguet Tradition Seconde Rétrograde 7038

The movement also features a black coating. The bridges and plates are sandblasted, and the barrel cover and rotor are guilloché in a "sunbeam" style. The dial with Arabic numerals is made of black aventurine glass. The hands and numerals are coated with silver powder.

Caliber 505SR inside Breguet Tradition Seconde Rétrograde 7038
