Mint condition with box papers booklet The Breguet Tradition 7057BB/11/9W6 is a stunning example of horological artistry and technical sophistication. Encased in a 40mm white gold case, this timepiece stands out with its open-worked skeleton dial, showcasing the intricate inner workings of the movement. The architecture of the dial, with its off-center hour and minute display, allows a clear view of the mainspring, gears, and bridges, all meticulously hand-finished. The blued Breguet hands and Roman numerals add a touch of classic elegance, while the fine detailing of the exposed movement highlights Breguet's commitment to precision and craftsmanship. At the heart of this watch is the manually-wound Caliber 507DR1, a movement that boasts a remarkable power reserve of 50 hours, displayed prominently on the dial side. This feature not only adds to the practical appeal of the watch but also enhances its aesthetic complexity. The white gold case is complemented by a fluted case band, a signature of Breguet’s design, and the sapphire crystal case back allows for an unobstructed view of the intricate movement from both sides. The watch is fitted with a black alligator leather strap, secured with a white gold pin buckle, ensuring both comfort and style. The Breguet Tradition 7057BB/11/9W6 is a masterpiece that combines historical design elements with modern watchmaking techniques, making it a coveted piece for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the art of fine watchmaking.
