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.













New La Tradition blue dial












Tourbillion extra plat 5367 with its fantastic (!) blue enamel dial.

On the picture below how you would expect it to look like:














BUT on the next picure you can see that the blue is not bluntly blue, but with a purple sheen too!:

amazing depth!















Classique 7373 blue















One I also like a lot, more than the 7373: Classique 7137 blue

I think the 7173 will look better on the wrist than the 7373 for the spectators.








Overall a very nice day at the Breguet Boutique in Düsseldorf with its very knowledgeable and utterly friendly personnel.

About the Breguet Ref. 7137

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.

That blue dial is really cool and different from the usual blue dials. It adds a lot to this new model

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!
