Breguet watches fashion news
Breguet watches are amongst the most beautiful and luxurious watches in the world. Breguet watches are real great. But the price is so high. There are many replica breguet watches in the market. Why so many breguet replica watches in the market? Because the breguet brand is one of the oldest watch brand.
The history of horology in the 18th century would not be complete without the probably greatest genius of watchmaking that ever lived, Abraham Louis Breguet.
If Breguet holds a special place in our cultural heritage, it is because its founder, A.-L. Breguet (1747-1823), set the standard by which all fine watchmaking has since been judged. Today, his heirs at Breguet still make each watch as a model of supreme horological art.
A.-L. Breguet was born in Neuchâtel, but it was in Paris that he spent most of his productive life. No aspect of watchmaking escaped his study, and his inventions were as fundamental to horology as they were varied.
His career started with a series of breakthroughs: the development of the successful self-winding perpétuelle watches, the introduction of the gongs for repeating watches and the first shock-protection for balance pivots.
Louis XVI and his Queen, Marie-Antoinette, were early enthusiasts of Breguet’s watchmaking. Each watch from his workshops demonstrated the latest horological improvements in an original movement, mostly fitted with lever or ruby-cylinder escapements that he perfected.
A.-L. Breguet took refuge in Switzerland from the excesses of the French Revolution. He returned to Paris overflowing with the ideas that produced the Breguet balance-spring, his first carriage clock (sold to Bonaparte), the sympathique clock and its dependent watch, the tact watch, and finally the tourbillon, patented in 1801.
Breguet became the indispensable watchmaker to the scientific, military, financial and diplomatic elites of the age. His timepieces ruled the courts of Europe. For his most distinguished clients, Breguet designed his most remarkable piece, anticipating the wristwatch by two centuries for Caroline Murat, Queen of Naples, in 1810. Honours saluted his enormous contribution to horology. Appointed to the Board of Longitude and as chronometer-maker to the navy, he entered the Academy of Sciences and received the Legion of Honour from the hands of Louis XVIII.
When he died in 1823, all mourned the architect of the greatest revolution in the science and art of time-keeping.
Breguet is now owned by the Swatch group and is the favourite brand of the chairman, Nicolas Hayek. He is credited with revitalising the luxury Swiss watch brand by focusing on price and style. Incredibly, these brands have been less affected by the GEC than the rest of the watch market. In August, 2009, diamond-encrusted “double tourbillon” watches that cost about 0,000.00 US were selling out as soon as they reached the country’s shores!
The real breguet watch is expensive. But breguet replica watch is cheap. There are so many replica breguet watch on our website (http://www.hotefashion.com).
