Breguet Marine Ref. 5517BR/Y2/5ZU, 18k Rose Gold, Blue Roman Dial, Blue Rubber Strap, 2026, Like New, Full Set

Few names in watchmaking carry as much history as Breguet. Abraham-Louis Breguet invented the tourbillon, created the first wristwatch and built watches for kings, queens and emperors. In 1815 he was appointed Chronometer Maker to the French Royal Navy, and the Marine collection pays tribute to that title. Since its redesign in 2018, the Marine has combined Breguet’s classic codes with a sporty, modern character, and the reference 5517 shows that balance beautifully.

The 40 mm case is made of 18 karat rose gold and has the fluted case band that is typical of Breguet. The crown is protected by a distinctive guard inspired by the bow of a ship, and the lugs are elegantly shaped. The watch is water resistant to 100 meters, so it is as ready for the sea as its name suggests. Through the sapphire caseback you can admire the movement.

The blue dial is decorated with a hand-guilloché wave pattern, a nod to the ocean and to Breguet’s legendary mastery of engine-turning. The Roman numerals and the famous Breguet hands, with their hollow “apple” tips, give it a classic elegance, while the luminous material adds a sporty touch. The date window at 3 o’clock completes the balanced layout.

Inside works the self-winding Breguet caliber 777Q with a silicon balance spring and escapement, which makes it highly resistant to magnetic fields and very precise. It offers around 55 hours of power reserve, and its gold rotor is finely decorated.

The watch is worn on a blue rubber strap with an 18 karat rose gold Breguet folding clasp, a sporty combination that matches the dial perfectly.

The watch dates from 2026 and is in like-new condition. It comes as a full set with box and warranty card, describtion booklet.

"A marvelous Breguet with naval heritage, and an elegant sports watch from one of the oldest names in watchmaking!"
