Tradition 7027BA - 18k Yellow Gold - Full Set - 2011

Breguet Tradition 7027BA - 18k Yellow Gold - Full Set (2011)

The Tradition 7027 reinterprets Abraham-Louis Breguet's late-18th-century souscription pocket watches as a modern wristwatch, exposing the bridges, gear train and balance on the dial side. In 18k yellow gold with an off-center silver guilloché sub-dial, this 7027BA is one of the most architectural and historically literate dress watches Breguet produces.
