COUNT DE MONET's visit to the Breguet boutique offers a timely look at several blue-dialed references, including the Tourbillon Extra-Plat 5367. His detailed observations, particularly on the unique purple sheen of the 5367's enamel dial, provide valuable insights for collectors considering these contemporary Breguet offerings. This article synthesizes his initial impressions and subsequent community discussion, highlighting nuances often missed in official product photography.






The Breguet Classique 7137 is a contemporary interpretation of the brand's traditional aesthetic, featuring a moon phase and power reserve indicator. This reference is distinguished by its intricate dial work, which often includes multiple guilloché patterns, a hallmark of Breguet's artisanal craftsmanship. It represents a commitment to classical watchmaking principles within the Classique collection, offering a balanced and legible display of its complications.
The watch is housed in a precious metal case, typically gold, with a diameter of 39mm and a thickness of 9.9mm. The case construction often features a finely fluted caseband, a signature Breguet design element. It is powered by an automatic movement, such as the Calibre 502.3 DR1, known for its slim profile and off-centered rotor. The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal.
This reference appeals to collectors who appreciate traditional horology and Breguet's historical design codes. It fits into the Classique lineup as a refined dress watch with practical complications. While not a limited edition in all its variants, specific dial or case material combinations may be produced in restricted numbers, adding to their collectibility.
Lots to think about... which was your favourite ?
I found the 7173 particullarly good looking.
That blue dial is really cool and different from the usual blue dials. It adds a lot to this new model
How about the new La Tradition blue ?
Even in non professional settings.
Its size of 40 mm is easy to wear and right for such a watch. The new blue dial gives it a technical touch, which is anyway the theme of the La Tradition. One cannot go wrong with any variant of it!
