The Breguet Tradition GMT 7067BB is a masterful fusion of classical horology and contemporary design, showcasing the brand’s unparalleled heritage in an unmistakably modern format. Introduced in 2012, the Tradition GMT builds upon the iconic Tradition Collection first launched in 2005, itself inspired by Louis Breguet’s historic souscription pocket watches of the late 18th century.
This 2022 example is presented in excellent, like-new condition and comes as a complete set with its original Breguet box and papers, making it a highly desirable acquisition for discerning collectors.
Design & Heritage
At first glance, the openworked dial and exposed movement architecture appear strikingly modern. Yet, the layout directly references Breguet’s early souscription watches—where the movement was the visual centerpiece. By flipping the movement to the dial side and reducing the traditional dial elements, Breguet allows the wearer to fully appreciate the artistry of haute horology.
Crafted in 18K white gold, the 40mm case strikes a perfect balance between elegance and presence, while the matte anthracite movement finish contrasts beautifully with Breguet’s signature blued steel hands.
GMT Functionality & Usability
The dual time GMT complication is both intuitive and refined.
A pusher at 10–11 o’clock allows for quick local time zone adjustment
The off-center dial at 12 o’clock displays local time
A second off-center dial at 8 o’clock shows home/reference time
A day/night indicator at 10 o’clock, featuring alternating silver and black, ensures effortless readability
This thoughtful layout makes the watch as practical for frequent travelers as it is visually captivating.
Movement & Craftsmanship
At the heart of the watch is the manual-wind Breguet Caliber 507DRF, visible from both the front and sapphire display caseback. The movement offers a 50-hour power reserve, with the indicator discreetly located on the back of the watch. Every component reflects Breguet’s uncompromising standards of finishing, from hand-engraved details to precision engineering.
