On 10 November 1801, horological legend Abraham-Louis Breguet (1747-1823) received a patent for his ingenious tourbillon invention. Breguet designed the tourbillon (or whirlwind) to compensate for fluctuations and errors in time measurement caused by the position a watch is placed in. For example, watches with traditional movements may keep excellent time when resting on a desk horizontally, but when that same watch is placed vertically in a pocket, gravity affects the frequency or rate of the escapement and thus its accuracy.

The present watch is of masterful engineering but also of exquisite design. Its platinum case houses the complex movement which can be admired in-between two sapphire crystals. Offered in excellent condition, it has a familiar timeless elegance that one would only associate with Breguet timepieces.
