Breguet Rattrapante 3947

Breguet Rattrapante 3947

SKU : 7425 Reference : 3947 Caliber : Lemania 2320 Year : ca. 2000 Case Dimensions : 38mm Clasp : 18K yellow gold Breguet bucklle Case Material : 18k yellow gold case Incredibly appealing and complicated Breguet. Before we take a look under the hood, let us start with the aesthetics. An iconic Breguet design with the coin-edged 38mm case and stylish straight lugs. Executed in the most traditional material: 18K yellow gold. The rehaut is rather big, to house the extended, blued handstack, and therefore giving a lot of wrist presence and depth to the dial. The hand-finished dial is made out of solid gold and features numerous motives alongside smooth-surface rings in the counters and for the Roman hour track and Arabic minute/ second track. Besides the brandname and serial number, it proudly displays the complication at the 6 'clock position: a Rattrapante! Everybody and their mother knows it is quite the task to produce this refined split-second complication, therefor only Breguet and Patek Philippe accomplished to build this from the Lemania 2320 Ebauche. Their successful attempt can be admired through the exhibition caseback. The increasing love for neo-vintage Breguet is so well-deserved but this 3947, from around the turn of the century, proves there is still a long way to go before this is displayed in the value. So jump on the Breguet bandwagon before it is too late and will cost you an arm and a leg.
