A modern enhancement to Breguet‘s esteemed Tradition collection, the newest Tradition Chronographe Indépendant 7077 is unveiled in a striking “Breguet Blue.” This new color offers readability and elegantly highlights the watch’s technical architecture, thus showcasing its dual balance wheels.

Encased in 18K white gold, the 44mm watch includes a fluted caseband, screw-locked pushers and a sapphire crystal case back. It features a “Breguet Blue” gold dial with a hand-finished Clous de Paris pattern and rhodium-plated hands that indicate the hours, minutes and chronograph functions. Its design and functionality both serve as a celebration of Breguet’s advancements in mechanical timekeeping, offering a collector’s piece that blends elegance with technical prowess.

Powered by the manual-winding caliber 580DR, this timepiece boasts innovative mechanics, including two separate gear trains that ensure precise timekeeping and chronograph functionality. The watch operates with a 55-hour power reserve for the main timekeeping and a 20-minute power reserve for the chronograph, which achieves a frequency of 36,000 vph for accurate short-time measurements.

This limited edition piece, with its detailed craftsmanship and innovative features, is a testament to Breguet’s legacy in horology. Priced at 86,500 CHF (approx. $96,798 USD), the Tradition Chronographe Indépendant 7077 in “Breguet Blue” is now open for inquiry via its brand.
