In the initiatory silence of great inventions, the Classique Tourbillon Sidéral 7255 stands out like a fixed star in the horological firmament. Produced in a limited edition of just 50 pieces, this timepiece pays tribute to the founding 1801 patent by elevating the art of the tourbillon in a flying version, suspended like a celestial body in the void. Its grand feu aventurine enamel dial, shimmering with copper sparkles reminiscent of a starlit sky, draws on a centuries-old technique from the 17th century and celebrates Abraham-Louis Breguet’s enduring fascination with astronomical science. At the heart of its boldly sculpted gold case beats the hand-wound 187M1 caliber, oscillating at 2.5 Hz, a mechanical soul at the intersection of sky and matter.
Presented in Geneva, the Sidéral 7255 forms part of the Maison Breguet’s 250th anniversary celebrations, unfolding across nine global chapters. A true homage to the invisible, this poetic timepiece reminds us that time, like the stars, remains a mystery in motion.
