Classique 5177

Grand feu enamel and the hands that bear his name.

Ref. 5177BB/2Y/9V6 · Released 2016 · Switzerland

The Classique 5177 is a study in restraint: a grand feu enamel dial, a coin-edge case band, welded lugs and a silicon balance spring hidden beneath.

Its numerals are printed in the Breguet script, and the eccentric seconds chapter echoes the maison's early nineteenth-century subscription watches.
