Breguet Launches the Poetic and Elegant Classic Moon Phase 9085 Valentine's Day Edition

Dec 17, 2022
Breguet launches the new Classique Moon Phase in time for Valentine's Day, featuring a dial gracefully adorned with white mother-of-pearl set with rubies. This model comes with both a red and a pearl-white strap, allowing for easy interchangeability to suit any mood.


The poetic and elegant Classique Moon Phase 9085 Valentine's Day Edition gracefully celebrates the feast of lovers. The dial features alternating Breguet numerals and six rubies, while the Maison's signature traditional Breguet hands glide across the dial to mark the passing of time.


The mother-of-pearl dial is adorned with an exquisitely detailed guilloched pattern, handcrafted by the artisans of the Breguet Manufacture. The moon phase, displayed at 6 o'clock, features a hammered gold moon surrounded by gold stars and a midnight blue lacquered sky. The Breguet signature appears in an oval motif at 12 o'clock. The 30 mm white gold case and lugs are set with 66 brilliant-cut diamonds. This model is limited to 28 pieces and is available in Breguet boutiques worldwide.


Like the recently launched Classique 8068, this watch features an interchangeable strap system for easy strap changes. Designed to allow straps to be changed without the need for tools, this system allows the wearer to change the style of their watch in an instant.


Movement
The new Classique 9085 is powered by the 231-component caliber 537L. The gold rotor is hand-guilloched with a circular barleycorn pattern.

This rhodium-plated automatic movement has a balance frequency of 3.5 Hz and a 45-hour power reserve. The in-line Swiss lever escapement's escape wheel and balance spring are made of silicon, a material with many excellent properties. It is resistant to corrosion and wear, and is unaffected by magnetic fields, thereby improving the precision of the watch. The sapphire caseback reveals some of Breguet's most prized decorative techniques, including the beveling of various components and the Côtes de Genève pattern. The case is water-resistant to 3 bar (30 m).

Classique Collection
Epitomizing Breguet's refined, streamlined design, the Classique collection remains true to the brand's distinctive aesthetic, rooted in its origins. Abraham-Louis Breguet was a talented watchmaker and inventor, and one of the first watch designers. When he founded his Parisian maison in 1775, the Baroque style was at its height. Breguet invented and pioneered neoclassical design in watchmaking, aiming to improve legibility and give dials a fresh look. He revolutionized watch styling with a succession of ideas, including perforated round hands, guilloched patterns, and off-center dials. First introduced in a pocket watch in 1812, the off-center dial became an integral part of the brand's DNA. Inspired by his earlier creations, the Classique 8068 was first introduced in 2003 as a wristwatch adaptation. In 2016, Breguet expanded its collection with the Classique Moonphase 9088. This modern and romantic new version, launched just in time for Valentine's Day, remains faithful to the strong character that characterizes the "Classic" line.
