Breguet’s Marine Chrono with Ruby Baguettes is a beauty with brains

The Marine 5829 Haute Joaillerie Chronograph is sure to delight anyone wanting to time sports performances with exceptional brilliance. Adopting the main features of Breguet model 5827, its self-winding mechanical movement is housed in a case entirely set with baguette-cut diamonds. Exactly 186 precious stones enhance the case bezel, lugs, frame, pushpieces and crown.
The dial’s silvered gold and delicately engine-turned mother-of-pearl form a dazzling composition. The date is shown in a dial aperture at 6 o’clock while baguette-cut sapphires or diamonds enhance the white gold version’s 15-minute sectoral readout and baguette-cut rubies or diamonds on the rose gold one. Wave-patterned engine-turning and blued, facetted Breguet hands complete the dial’s rich visual effects.
Over and above the meticulous workmanship and vast expertise which designs like these call for, the precious stones are selected with extreme rigour. Not only must the gems be internally pure, they also have to match to perfection in terms of colour, size and cut as even minute differences might spoil the design’s overall harmonysee more Hublot copie and hermes
