chiffres romains, des aiguilles ainsi que du bracelet selon un éventail de propositions signées Breguet, fai- sant de chaque pièce un garde-temps unique. La Classique Dragon - 7145, Edition limitée et numéro- tée de 8 pièces : toute l’habileté des artisans Breguet se retrouve dans cette création. Le cadran de couleur rouge vermeil, dont les teintes varient entre le tour d’heures et le centre, est réalisé avec une technique que peu d’artisans pratiquent encore : l’émail « grand feu ». Le dragon, se dressant fièrement sur le cadran, est une applique en or rose entièrement gravée à la main : il garde toujours un oeil attentif sur sa perle, faite en nacre naturelle blanche. Les chiffres romains, la minuterie ainsi que les nuages arborent une teinte dorée rose poudré. Le tour d’heures est pour sa part ponctué par douze discrets index ronds en or. Enfin, l’heure est indiquée grâce aux aiguilles Breguet à «pomme évidée», l’une des signatures de la Maison. Breguet pays tribute to the emblematic Year of the Dragon with the unveiling of two new watches crea- ted in highest standards by its in-house expertise. A symbol of power, courage, nobility, tenacity and suc- cess, the dragon is regarded in Chinese culture as a supernatural creature with many talents... In its honour, the Manufacture has dedicated all of its skills into creating two exceptional timepieces. The Classique Double Tourbillon Dragon - 5345, Special Edition. The entirely hand-engraved gold dragon secu- red to the two barrel bridges is depicted clutching a pearl made of mother-of-pearl in its talons. Legend has it that this pearl possesses the sacred essence that gives the dragon its power. Moreover, Breguet offers each client a one-of-a-kind timepiece, as the dragon's shape and colour can be personalised as desired. The colour of the Roman numerals, the hands and the strap can also be chosen from a range of Breguet designs. The Classique Dragon - 7145, Limited and numbered edition of 8 pieces: The full range of skills cultivated by Breguet's craftspeople is visible in this new creation. Firstly, the crimson red dial featuring different shades between the chapter ring and the centre is produced using a technique rarely exercised today: Grand Feu enamelling. The dragon standing proudly on the dial is an entirely hand-engraved rose gold applique. The fan- tasy creature with its majestic posture keeps a constantly watchful eye on its pearl, made of natural white mother-of-pearl. The Roman numerals, minutes track and clouds are in a golden powder-pink hue. The chapter ring is punctuated by 12 discreet round gold hour-markers. Finally, the time is indicated by Breguet's signature open-tipped hands. www.breguet.com
