From September 26th to October 22nd 2014, a special exhibition entitled “Breguet, the Innovator” is taking up residence on the ground floor of the GUM department store located on the Red Square in Moscow. Reviewing the contributions that the Manufacture has made to the field of horology, the exhibition provides an experiential way of learning about the brand’s most important inventions.
The exhibit focuses, amongst others, on the tourbillon, one of the master watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet’s most important inventions. The exhibition offers a unique opportunity to discover 3 of 35 antique watches with a tourbillon sold by A.-L. Breguet between 1805 and 1823: watch N°986, watch N°1188 and watch N°2567. The contemporary timepiece Classique Tourbillon extra-thin automatic 5377, a pure Breguet creation combining timeless style and cutting-edge technology, is also on display for the first time in Russia at the occasion of this event.
Over the time, under the guidance of President and CEO Marc A. Hayek, Breguet’s design and watchmaking teams have all at once remained faithful to the House’s philosophy: passion, creativity and innovation.
