Time in the Breguet style
The C watch is directly
LASSIQUE
inspired by the work of A.-L.
Breguet. It embodies the principles
with which he revolutionized watch
design: purity of form, harmony of
proportion and clarity of informa-
tion, reflecting the ordered beauty
of the movement within. Its fea-
tures are the hallmarks of the
Breguet style, from its finely fluted
caseband to its hand-engraved
"guilloché" dial. With its strong per-
sonality, your C represents
LASSIQUE
the ideal face of time.
A.-L. Breguet's historic invention,
the tourbillon regulator, was patent-
ed in 1801. This device was con-
ceived to compensate for the errors
in rate caused by the constant
changes in the watch's position. It
consists of mounting the escape-
ment and sprung balance in a
mobile carriage which rotates on
itself with utter regularity. Errors
are thus reproduced regularly and
cancel each other out, rather than
accumulating. Two centuries later
it remains a technical "tour de
force" of which very few watch-
makers are capable.
