Breguet Classique Grande Complication 5347 Twin Rotating Tourbillon

admin — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 06:14:03 +0000

Exactly three years after the original Twin Rotating Tourbillon’s launch, Breguet offers a follow-up to the highly sought-after model featuring a pair of tourbillons on its silvered dial. This time, the watch comes in a case made of rose gold instead of platinum, but it still retails at a price of a Bentley limmo.

Just like the original model, the Breguet Classique Grande Complication 5347 Twin Rotating Tourbillon watch features a hand-wound mechanical movement with a pair of tourbillons traveling around its dial. Coupled by a differential gear, the little turbines balance each other, doubling the watch’s accuracy. The tourbillons rotate at a speed of one revolution per 12 hours so that their connecting bridge can act as an hour hand. It has a standard centrally mounted Breguet piece for the minute hand, though.
It’s been exactly a decade since Swatch Group acquired the Breguet brand from a Bahrainese investment company. During these ten years, Breguet is gradually returning to its roots, forgetting the era of constant financial troubles and slowly replacing sporty but tasteless chronographs with grand complication models. After all, it was Abraham-Louis Breguet who designed and crafted the first tourbillon watch.
