Happy Tourbillon Day

On June 26, 1801, master watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet patented a new kind of regulator: the tourbillon.

Abraham-Louis Breguet only sold 35 tourbillon watches in his lifetime. This confidential figure in itself hints at the extreme complexity involved in producing this unique mechanism. While patented in 1801, its development took no less than 10 years of experimentation and research in the years spanning from 1795 to 1805.

Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept Watch - The World's Thinnest Mechanical Watch

​In 2018, Piaget re-claimed the title of the thinnest mechanical watch in the world with their Altiplano Ultimate Concept watch. 

Measuring in at 2mm, the Altiplano Ultimate Concept showcased Piaget innovations, including a case that formed part of the movement, a unique, integrated winding crown, an ultra-thin crystal and, more importantly, new constructions for the barrel and energy regulation. This allows for a power reserve of more than 40 hours. 

A New Reine de Naples

On 5th May 2020, for the very first time, Breguet highlights the delicate oval shape of the dial of the Reine de Naples with pure, bright white grand feu enamel, complete with numerals in celestial shades.
