Historical Context

The collection is characterized by traditional craftsmanship, refined proportions, hand-finished details, and the unmistakable visual codes that have defined Breguet watches for over two centuries.

The Ref. 5177 was introduced as a contemporary interpretation of the classic time-and-date dress watch. Featuring a meticulously hand-guilloché dial crafted from gold, welded lugs, a transparent sapphire caseback, and the brand's iconic pomme-style hands, it exemplifies Breguet's dedication to preserving traditional watchmaking artistry while incorporating modern technical advancements. Today, the 5177 is regarded as one of the finest entry points into the world of high horology and remains highly sought after by collectors who appreciate understated elegance and exceptional craftsmanship.
