Breguet
Pivotal inventions from 1775 to present
If Breguet holds a special place in our cultural heritage, it is because its founder, A.-L. Breguet (1747-1823), set the standard by which all fine watchmaking has since been judged. Today, his heirs at Breguet still make each watch as a model of supreme horological art.
The Legacy
Breguet’s creativity and ingenuity have not dwindled over time, but have on the contrary steadily increased: witness the fact that since 1999, the list of patents registered during this recent period is now considerably longer than that of the founder’s inventions.
