II

The chronograph

A chronograph is a stopwatch built into the watch. On most models one pusher starts and stops it and another sets it back to zero, while the time of day runs on regardless. The counters on the dial add up the elapsed minutes and, on many models, the hours.

III · The manufacture

Breguet since 1775

Abraham-Louis Breguet opened his own workshop on the Quai de l’Horloge in Paris in 1775. His self-winding watches appeared in 1780, an early expression of his interest in practical mechanisms. The pare-chute shock-protection device followed in 1790. Breguet received the tourbillon patent in 1801. The house records an order for a watch designed for the wrist in 1810. A Swiss workshop opened in the Vallée de Joux in 1976, strengthening the brand’s production ties there. Swatch Group acquired the Breguet watchmaking group in 1999 and remains its owner. Today production is centred at the manufacture in L’Orient, in the Swiss Vallée de Joux.

IV · Ownership

Wearing and caring

1
An automatic watch winds itself while worn. Left off the wrist for a couple of days it stops: wind it with the crown, then set the time and the date.
2
Water resistance of 100 m and more is for swimming. Keep the crown screwed or pushed in, and do not use the pushers under water.
3
Have the movement serviced every few years by the brand's own service or an authorised watchmaker.
