Breguet - Classique Ref 3290BB in White Gold
Neo-vintage Breguet is pretty tough to beat. Here, you have a precious metal, ultra-thin, watch that features real (and good) guilloche work, excellent heat blued hands, and all from a brand with legendary chops. I love these watches because nowhere else can you get something with this much detail, level of finishing, true pedigree, and in white(!) gold for less.
Case: The 32 x 38 x 5.8 mm 18K White Gold case shows normal wear commensurate with age, but appears to be unpolished and original. The hallmarks between the lugs are deep and crisp, and all original finishing is present. This watch also features the early and correct cabachon crown. There is a scratch on the bezel to the left of 12 o’clock along with surface scratches and swirls throughout.
Dial: The hand turned guilloche dial is in very good condition, featuring a warm almost light cream color on the guilloche sections serving as a nice contrast to the brushed minutes, hours, and seconds tracks. The dial is very even and clean throughout, serving as a nice backdrop to the deeply saturated heat-blued Breguet handset.
Movement: The watch was serviced in 2023, and is winding, setting, and running smoothly, within expected tolerances.
Includes: Black alligator strap signed by Tourneau that closely mirrors the original strap and sharp, stamped white gold Breguet buckle.
