This is one Who’s Who of Watchmaking (WWW) that naturally we had to do at some point considering the legacy the name Breguet evokes to all watch lovers.
The inventiveness of Abraham-Louis Breguet is naturally highly recognised, ranging of course from the tourbillon, but also the first self winding movement watch and the Pendule Sympathique among others. And this is even more so remarkable when you think that in the late 18th century no computer or CNC machines would help you achieve this kind of feat!
In the episode of the day, our goal was really to portrait not only these historic achievements, but also show how this legacy lived on through the years, from good stuff to some more questionable period.
But since the acquisition of this illustrious name by the Swatch Group, the brand has gone through a rather spectacular development spearheaded by none other than Nick Hayek Snr. Actually, Breguet was a total passion of his.
Enjoy & Viva Watchmaking,

I would recommend to check that lump on your neck that I can see in this video. I have not seen it before.
Your command and use of the language is the perfect compliment to the imagery you present. Bravo !
Interesting? He would have probably got on very well with IK Brunnel and the likes? These guys brains had no parameters! Be it a clock or bridge etc All genius minds that had drive and ridiculous passion. Interestingly enough all these guys would have engulfed modern technology without a doubt I think? They were technology at the time in a similar way Casio is high technology now? Controversial comment possibly but I am well read on great engineers and the best never lived with the past? This is a superb channel.Cheers,Len .
Gotta love love love these fantastic videos!!!
If anyone is feeling generous I would be happy to except the Breguet Transatlantique Type XXI Flyback Chronograph in Rose Gold

Another great video about the great world of horology. Thank you!
Today is the birthday of Abraham Louis Breguet
Children always want to breakout from their father’s business. Very rarely do you find children inherit their father’s passion. Way of the world.
Excellent video. I think the Type 20 whether regarded as an aberration or not is a beautiful chronograph.
What a great compilation of Breguet’s history , really interesting, thanks Marc André…
Great video, very interesting! Thanks!
How you manage to give all this info content soooooo precisely, even if reading it off, amazing
I love those general knowledge videos. Thank you for this excellent episode. Keep them coming, please. 🙂
Great Breguet history summary Marc. Thanks for sharing. I just wished Breguet had the same level of appreciation as Patek.
I have no doubt the technical competency is there considering Lemania history and tradition in horology. Hope they get there!
Cheers
