Breguet Classique 5177PT
Breguet has expanded its Classique collection with the introduction of the Classique 5177PT, a refined timepiece that combines the enduring allure of platinum with the intricate craftsmanship of Grand Feu enamel. This model marks the first time that Grand Feu enamel dials have been encased in platinum within this collection, making it a noteworthy addition to Breguet’s lineup. The use of platinum, known as “the metal of kings,” lends the watch a distinct presence with its subtle gray hue and exceptional durability, perfectly complementing the timeless design of the Classique 5177PT.
The round 38mm case with a slim 8.8mm thickness is made of platinum, exuding elegance and understated luxury. The case is crafted to highlight the signature elements of the Classique collection, including a slim bezel, knurled crown, and fluted case band. The polished surfaces of the platinum enhance the watch’s refined appearance, while the case’s substantial weight underscores the rarity and prestige of the material.
On the reverse side, a transparent sapphire caseback reveals the intricacies of the calibre 777 Q. This exhibition-style caseback allows wearers to admire the detailed craftsmanship of the self-winding movement, including its rhodium-plated 18-carat gold oscillating weight, which is adorned with a hand-engraved starry mosaic motif. The movement’s inner workings are framed by the sleek platinum case, highlighting the meticulous attention to detail that defines Breguet’s approach to haute horlogerie.It comes equipped with delicately tapered lugs that ensure a comfortable fit on the wrist, seamlessly integrating with the black alligator leather strap. The knurled crown ensures precise time-setting, while the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal on the front and back enhances durability. Water-resistance can reach up to 30 meters (98 feet).The dial of the Classique 5177PT is a showcase of Grand Feu enamel craftsmanship, a centuries-old technique that requires expert skill and patience. The deep black enamel dial provides a striking contrast to the powdered silver Breguet numerals and the subtle minutes track, which create a refined, elegant aesthetic. The Grand Feu enamel process involves applying multiple layers of powdered silica mixed with oxides onto a dial base, followed by high-temperature firings that result in a glossy, flawless finish that will remain vibrant for decades.
At 3 o’clock, the dial features a tone-on-tone date window that integrates seamlessly with the overall design, ensuring that the date indication does not disrupt the dial’s harmonious balance. The white gold Breguet-style hands, with their signature hollowed tips, glide smoothly across the enamel surface, adding a touch of classical elegance to the contemporary aesthetic. Positioned between the center and 6 o’clock, Breguet’s secret signature offers a nod to the brand’s heritage, an element originally used to protect against counterfeits in the 18th century.The inscription “Emaille Grand Feu” at 6 o’clock signifies the artisanal expertise behind the dial’s creation, a reminder of the enduring tradition that defines Breguet’s craftsmanship. The high-contrast design ensures legibility while maintaining a clean, sophisticated look that is quintessentially Breguet.
