One of the most historic brands in the world, Breguet is known by many as the Watchmaker to Kings. It was Breguet who first invented and patented the tourbillon in 1801, as a way of ensuring that the movement rate of pocket watches would not be affected by gravity. This skeleton tourbillon timepiece showcases this horological groundbreaking invention, it is mesmerizing to study the marvellous micro-mechanics. With a simple turn of the crown, the gear train is set in motion and the wearer is able to witness the transmission of energy from mainspring to escapement. The finely tuned balance and center wheel on the front dial and the epicyclic train on the back dial are highlighted with exquisite yellow gold.
