The Breguet Watch Company
The History of the Brand
Breguet, the Swiss watch company upholding traditions, has an extensive and illustrious family tree. Many consider its founder, Abraham-Louis Breguet to be the father of watch industry. Indeed, Breguet was one of the greatest horologists of all time. Since 1775, the list of Breguet clients included Napoleon Bonaparte, Marie-Antoinette, Winston Churchill, Alexander Dumas, as well as a number of Princes, Dukes, Sultans and Kings.
Breguet bore profound influence on watch-making. In 1780, he enhanced the automatic timepiece, produced the first oil-free escapement, integrated the first shock absorber into a watch, developed perpetual date mechanisms, and devised and patented the Tourbillon. The Tourbillon rotating dolly, devised by Breguet in 1795 and patented in 1801, negated the effect of gravity on the accuracy of timing devices and is still employed in elite timepieces nowadays.
Numerous watchmakers tend to make pompous declarations telling you that their watches are the best in the world while their timepieces may be of a mediocre quality and design. But as for the Breguet Company, everything said about their unique timepieces can be doubtlessly taken as true.
The company is one of the most appreciated in the watch-making field - its founder was the celebrated 18th century watchmaker A. L. Breguet, who is considered the father of almost 80% of all the most essential innovations in his industry. As an effect, the brand is spread extensively within history (A. L. Breguet projected the first wrist watch for the Queen of Naples, Napoleon's sister), and literature (Stendhal (the French writer whose novels were the first to have psychological analysis of the character) examined the mechanism of the human body in order to note the similarities and differences between the human body and a Breguet watch).
Even after its acquirement by the giant Swatch group, the company has maintained its traditions and standards – without any need for spending too much assets and efforts to gain new markets, since this time-honored watchmaker has always been well-known among the individuals who know what timepieces are the finest in the world.
