Overview

The Breguet Tradition 7057BB/11/9W6 is a 40 mm dress watch cased in 18k white gold, built around the manually wound Calibre 507DR1. Its defining feature is an off-centred silvered guilloché dial that leaves the majority of the movement visible, turning the watch into a wearable study in horological transparency. The reference sits at the heart of the Tradition line, which revives the aesthetic language of Abraham-Louis Breguet's early 19th-century souscription pocket watches.

History

Breguet introduced the Tradition collection in the mid-2000s as a deliberate return to the exposed-movement idiom that the maison's founder pioneered. The 7057 variant, introduced around 2011, brought the concept into an 18k white gold case, broadening the line's material palette beyond its original yellow and rose gold offerings. The Tradition family has remained in continuous production, cementing its status as one of the brand's most architecturally distinctive dress-watch propositions. Among collectors, the white gold references are regarded as the most formally refined expressions of the series.

Notable points

  • 40 mm 18k white gold case strikes a balance between presence and dress-watch propriety.
  • Calibre 507DR1 is a manually wound movement whose bridges and wheels are deliberately displayed on the dial side.
  • Off-centred silvered guilloché dial echoes the hand-engraved decoration associated with Breguet's classical workshop tradition.
  • The exposed-movement layout descends directly from Abraham-Louis Breguet's souscription watch concept of the early 1800s.
  • White gold case metal gives the reference a cooler, more formal character compared to the yellow and rose gold variants in the Tradition line.
