[x2046]

Price: USD 12,500

Description

This is the Breguet Jump Hour 3420BA. While Breguet may not be the first brand mentioned by collectors today, the brand has one of the strongest legacies when it comes to watchmaking. Originally established in the late 18th century, Louis Breguet was an early adopter of the steel hands with circle motifs, the curved numerals and the guilloche pattern on the dial. The design language is distinctive even up till today. The “Souscription”, a single-hand pocket watch, is one of the most important and famous pocket watches in history. In the early 19th century, Louis Breguet invented the Tourbillion, which is one of the most sought after complications in horology. This particular reference employs the Jump Hour complication with a single hand and an hour aperture above the 60. The dial is white enamel with painted signature Breguet Numerals and runs on the automatic Breguet Calibre 562 movement. With Breguet’s artistry in watchmaking, the 3420 with the jump hour complication represents one of most interesting offerings among neo-vintage Breguets and was only made in a limited edition of 800 pieces.

Condition

This Breguet 3420BA is in very good pre-owned condition. There are light hairlines on the case from prior wear consistent with its age. There are some hairlines on the caseback which remains in good condition. It retains the original Breguet yellow gold buckle. The jump hour mechanism functions perfectly.
