Breguet Black Watches

Breguet Reveil du Tsar Enamel Boutique Edition Alarm WatchThe new Breguet Reveil du Tsar Boutique Edition alarm watch with grand feu enamel offers a perfect balance of legibility and eternal elegance. Originally introduced almost eight years ago during the Baselworld 2003 trade show, the Breguet Reveil du Tsar has recently been updated with a gorgeous white Grand Feu enamel dial.While I am not the greatest fan of Breguet’s current model range, this particular watch simply takes my breath away.The milky white dial, heat-blued hands, and meticulously painted numerals produce absolutely stunning effect.Also, the watch offers an outstanding level of legibility, when a mighty torrent of information (an alarm clock sub-dial at 3 o’clock; a subsidiary second and small date aperture at 6 o’clock; a 24-hour GMT sub-dial at 9 o’clock; an alarm clock’s power reserve indicator between 10 and 11 o’clock; and, finally, an alarm on/off indicator at 12 o’clock) doesn’t drown you, but actually refreshes your mind.The alarm complication is also an example in ergonomics.As one may easily guess, it is operated with its own winding crown at 4 o’clock and a small pusher at 8 o’clock.Its own sub-dial is marked-up in Roman numerals and in different type-face, which makes it even easier to separate it from the main dial.The rest is more or less the same.The watch is supplied in the same 39 mm case and is powered by the same Breguet caliber 519F automatic movement.Built on 34 jewels and offering up to 45 hours of power reserve, the movement is beautifully decorated with Geneva stripes on its bridges and a spiral Barleycorn guilloche pattern on its 18-carat rose gold oscillating weight.As the name implies, the watch will be sold exclusively at Breguet’s own boutiques throughout the world.

New for 2010 and first presented a Baselworld in March, the new Breguet Marine Royale watches are a great addition to the Marine line. Available in either 18-carat white gold or rose gold and in four different combinations, white gold with white gold dial, white gold with dark dial, rose gold with rose gold dial and finally a rose gold with dark dial. The solid 18-carat gold case measures 45 millimeters wide by 17.45 millimeters thick. The watch features a unidirectional bezel with a luminous marker, the security ratchet of the turning bezel is visible at 3 o'clock.The dial is available in both light and dark versions. The triangular hand at the center of the dial handles setting the alarm time. The alarm power-reserve indication is in an aperture between 9 and 11 o'clock. The alarm on/off indicator is the round aperture at 12 o'clock. Date is located at 6 o'clock. The Breguet style hands are hands coated with a luminous compound. Powered by the in-house 519R calibre self-winding movement with an alarm mechanism and 36 jewels. The movement can be viewed through a sapphire crystal case-back. The superb construction of the timepiece allows for a water-resistant of 300 meters. The movement has a power reserve of up to 45 hours.
