Breguet Héritage Grande Complication Tourbillon 18K Rose Gold Watch

The Breguet Héritage Grande Complication Tourbillon (Ref. 5497BR/12/9V6) is an extraordinary marriage of classical craftsmanship and contemporary form. Ditching the conventional round shape, it embraces a highly contoured, curved tonneau-shaped case in solid 18K rose gold that wraps comfortably around the wrist. True to the House's historic identity, the case flanks feature the iconic, finely fluted coin-edge decoration, matched with robust welded lugs and screw-pins.

Underneath the beautifully arched, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal lies a multi-tiered dial of exquisite complexity. The solid gold dial plate is completely hand-engraved on a rose engine, displaying a series of fine guilloché waves. An applied, one-piece Roman numeral hour chapter ring hovers over the dial, swept past by iconic blued-steel open-tipped Breguet hands. The centerpiece is the large one-minute tourbillon at 6 o'clock, which also houses the running small seconds indicator integrated directly on its rotational axis.

The manual-winding Calibre 187H beats steadily within, composed of 196 hand-finished elements and 21 jewels. It is accessible for partial viewing through an exhibition window on the solid gold case back, providing up to 50 hours of power reserve. Mounted on a luxurious hand-stitched brown alligator leather strap, this work of art is completed with an 18K rose gold folding clasp beautifully adorned with the Breguet "B" logo.
