The present timepiece belongs to the Breguet Classique family, exemplifying the brand's unwavering dedication to craftsmanship, tradition, and technical proficiency. While the majority of the line is offered in the more conventional combination of yellow gold case and silvered engraved dial, the present reference 5238 Classique Chronograph takes the idea to a whole new level.
This model, which is set with an incredible 96 baguette-cut diamonds totaling about 12.21 carats across the bezel, case band, and lugs, is encased in white gold and displays a commanding presence while still being distinctly Breguet in its elegance and subtlety. The complete mechanical poetry of the chronograph is revealed by the elaborately skeletonized and engraved caliber 533 SQ, which showcases the maison's unmatched decorative craftsmanship. The column-wheel chronograph mechanism, the finely engraved balance cock, and the compensated balance wheel with swan-neck regulator, all symbols of Breguet's technical legacy, are all visible through the openwork design.
Breguet's centuries-old savoir-faire is combined in this unique and opulent design of the Classique Chronograph. With a last known retail price of 301'500 CHF, the present timepiece offers collectors the opportunity to acquire a wonderful celebration of both high watchmaking and high jewelry.
