Dial Plate Information
Breguet watches
The history of horology in XVIII century would not be full without the greatest genius of watch making that ever lived, Abraham Louis Breguet. He was awarded this title not thanks to the exterior details of his watches but for the amazing accuracy.
Among his works, the well-known is the Breguet spiral, found until today in every quality watch and wristwatch, and the tourbillon, the whirlwind – an ingenious device that Breguet invented to reimburse for gravity influences on the balance spring in pocket watches. Later on, he invented new striking mechanism for repeaters, a new escapement, the so-called echappement naturel, similar to the chronometer escapement in 1790.
Watches invented by Abraham Louis Breguet as if existed beyond the basic mechanics laws and they are still demanded. Breguet is not the brand name now; this is the symbol of the quality for all watches. When people want to accentuate how accurate their watches are, they mention Breguet.
Breguet Company was established in 1775 when the young master Бреге Breguet (he was only 28) opened his firs watch shop in Paris. Five years later, in 1780, Abraham Louis Breguet launched his first watches with automated winding, inertial load and two wind-up barrels, the surprising achievement in the watch making industry.
Three year later, in 1783, Abraham Louis Breguet invented the construction of the impulse gong and the first pare-chuté shock protection system invented in 1790.
When observing watches, one can think that all services provided by watches are all invented by great Abraham Louis Breguet, in particular free second hand, mechanism of eternal calendar that is able to consider the length of February in the leap year, «a-tact» watches that allow to blindly determine the time (without taking them out of pocket), the winder, cylinder escapement with a ruby cylinder, automatic winding mechanism, implemented in his around forty Perpetuelles, and many other this still appreciated in our times, including guilloche dial plate, isochronous balance spiral with the winder and many others.
Among the charming inventions by Abraham Louis Breguet is pocket «Sympatique» watches with automated correction of time by the «parental» chronometer in 1795. The watches with 60-hour run are worth to mention specially, they are the great achievement of that time, yet presently there are few mechanic watches with similar operating run. Many modern watches replicated some design elements of Breguet’s inventions, like hands of «Breguet apple», the dial plate with ticks or dots to symbolize minutes, seconds, etc.
