Breguet Classique Chronométrie 10 Hz Ref. 7727BR/12/9WU

Partially verified

The Breguet Classique Chronométrie 10 Hz, reference 7727BR/12/9WU, is a manual-wind wristwatch housed in an 18K rose gold case measuring 41mm in diameter. The watch features a silvered guilloché dial with black Roman numerals and a blued steel Breguet handset. Complications include a power reserve indicator located between 11 and 12 o'clock, a small seconds register at 12 o'clock, and a central seconds hand designed to display 1/10-second increments. It is powered by the manual-wind Caliber 574DR, a high-frequency movement operating at 10Hz, or 72,000 vibrations per hour. The movement utilizes a silicon escapement and balance spring, alongside a magnetic pivot system. The watch is presented on a black alligator leather strap with an 18K rose gold deployant buckle and includes an inner box, pamphlets, and a certificate of origin.

Object description

Case and Dial Design

The watch is constructed with an 18K rose gold case measuring 41mm in diameter, featuring a stepped bezel, straight lugs, and a signed crown. The assembly uses sapphire crystal.

The silvered guilloché dial serves as the primary visual element, incorporating black Roman numerals and a blued steel Breguet handset. The dial layout includes a power reserve indicator positioned between the 11 and 12 o'clock markers, with a small seconds register at 12 o'clock and a central seconds hand that marks 1/10-second increments.

Evidence for this section
  • “Housed in an 18K rose gold case measuring 41mm in diameter, it features a stepped bezel, signed crown, straight lugs, and sapphire crystal.”
  • “Its silvered guilloché dial is complemented by black Roman numerals, a blued steel ‘Breguet’ handset, a power reserve indicator between 11 and 12 o’clock, a small seconds register at 12 o’clock, and a striking central seconds hand capable of displaying 1/10-second increments.”

Movement Specifications

The timepiece is powered by the Breguet Caliber 574DR, a manually wound movement known for its high-frequency performance at 10Hz, which equates to 72,000 vibrations per hour.

This movement integrates modern technical components, specifically a silicon escapement and silicon balance spring. Furthermore, the caliber incorporates a magnetic pivot system intended to enhance the stability and precision of the balance, resulting in a stated precision rate of -1/+3 seconds per day with a 60-hour power reserve.

Evidence for this section
  • “Powering the watch is Breguet’s manually wound Caliber 574DR, an extraordinary high-frequency movement beating at 10Hz — or 72,000 vibrations per hour.”
  • “The movement incorporates a silicon escapement and balance spring alongside an innovative magnetic pivot system designed to improve the stability and precision of the balance.”
  • “The result is a remarkably accurate mechanical wristwatch that can achieve a stated precision of -1/+3 seconds per day, while retaining a 60-hour power reserve.”

Accompanying Items

The object is sold as a complete set including its original documentation and presentation materials. This includes an inner box, instructional pamphlets, and the certificate of origin.

The watch is fitted with a signed black alligator leather strap and finished with an 18K rose gold deployant buckle.

Evidence for this section
  • “Paired to a signed black alligator leather strap with an 18K rose gold deployant buckle, this example is accompanied by its inner box, pamphlets, and certificate of origin.”

Open research questions

  • Does the movement contain a specific service history record linked to the serial number?
  • Is the '10 Hz' marking on the dial specific to this model generation or updated across later production runs?
