Another highlight of Breguet’s 250th anniversary celebrations is the only minute repeater wristwatch created this year – the Classique Minute Repeater 7365, produced in a limited edition of 25 pieces. 

By the looks of the timepiece, its case is inspired by the Classique Souscription watch that launched the anniversary celebrations this year. Its case size is reduced from other minute repeater watches created by the mansion in 42 mm to 39 mm. Crafted in 18-karat Breguet gold, it features a guilloché middle, hollowed-out apple-shaped hands, grand feu enamel dial, applied Breguet numerals in polished Breguet gold, signature at 12 o’clock and a secret handmade signature at 6 o’clock. On the dial,  the white gold is finished with Bleu de France enamel in a french blue (Bleu de France )color, used for the first time by the brand. The case is decorated with Guilloché work, inspired by the aerial view of the Île de la Cité and Île St Louis, inter- twined with the Seine winding between the islands. This guilloché pattern is also found between the newly designed lugs. 

Technically, this could be considered the most advanced minute repeater created by the maison ever. It features a new movement, calibre 1896, developed from calibre 567.2, that powered the minute repeater creations so far and touted to phase out from future creations. The movement features a silicon escapement, an increased frequency of 3 Hz, an optimised gear train, escapement, and barrel. It boasts a power reserve of 75 hours. This is the first minute repeater movement made in Breguet gold, with its gongs made of white gold and gilded with Breguet gold. It is also the first minute repeater watch that is water resistant to 30 metres, thanks to the complication activation lock fitted with gaskets. 

Turning the watch over reveals a fully hand-engraved movement visible on the reverse side. The engraving links the origins of the watch: Paris in the 18th century and its production in Switzerland in 2025. The upper section of the movement shows the Quai de l’Horloge in Breguet gold, including its buildings, riverbanks, and the Pont-Neuf crossing the Seine. The lower section presents the Vallée de Joux, including its forested slopes and the Dent de Vaulion.

Every movement carries an individual number and the Breguet hallmark on the balance bridge. The watch is delivered on a small-scale alligator leather strap, hand-stitched and hand-finished, in French blue, with an 18-karat Breguet gold folding clasp.

The Classique Grande Sonnerie Métiers d’Art 1905 marks Breguet’s return to producing a Grande Sonnerie, integrating 532 movement components and requiring more than six months of assembly. It combines a Grande Sonnerie mechanism, a Petite Sonnerie mode, and a minute repeater that can be activated on demand even when the striking is set to silent. The strike work is supported by a magnetic regulator developed by Breguet. The movement is Caliber 508GS, manually wound, numbered and signed, with a 56-hour power reserve in timekeeping mode and 36 hours when operating in Grande Sonnerie mode. The diameter of the watch is 56.5 mm.

The watch incorporates a tourbillon placed at 4:30. The regulator-style display functions: off-centre hours at 12 o’clock, central minutes, and seconds read from the tourbillon axis. The hour display is executed in grand feu enamel with petit feu enamel numerals, featuring a visible signature and a second signature engraved flush with the enamel using a pantograph. The minute display is presented on a guilloché surface, and the seconds hand is fixed to the tourbillon cage.

The gong spring system is protected by two patents of Breguet inventions of the gong and the gold gong spring. Only the hammers appear on the dial side. The full chiming mechanism, including the grande sonnerie and minute repeater strike train, is visible when the hunter-style back—guilloché with the Quai de l’Horloge motif and Bleu de France enamel—is opened. All components of the mechanism are decorated by hand through traditional techniques including drawn lines, bevelling, stretching, and encapsulating.

The case is in Breguet gold, with hand engraving depicting the Seine and its surroundings. The tourbillon bridge is blued, and the enamel work uses Bleu de France. The watch is delivered with a Breguet gold chain featuring guilloché fastenings. The presentation case is constructed using the last remaining wood from the oak linked to Marie-Antoinette at the Petit Trianon. The interior includes a resonance plate crafted from wood sourced in the Risoud forest of the Vallée de Joux, selected for acoustic performance in striking instruments.
