Breguet Tradition

About this reference

The Breguet Tradition 7027 in 18k white gold was introduced in 2005 as the inaugural model of the Tradition collection and remained in production until approximately 2015. Collectors prioritize this reference for its open-worked architecture, which utilizes the manual-wind Calibre 507DR. The movement design is directly inspired by the 1796 souscription pocket watches created by Abraham-Louis Breguet, featuring a central barrel and a symmetrical gear train visible from the dial side. The 37mm case includes signature straight lugs and a coin-edge profile, housing a small, hand-guilloché sub-dial at 12 o'clock. On the secondary market, this white gold reference typically trades between $14,000 and $19,000 depending on condition and provenance. A notable technical detail is the inclusion of a pare-chute shock protection system, a historical recreation of the brand’s 18th-century invention, visible on the balance bridge.
