Earlier this year, Breguet unveiled its models for 2020 including this Classique 7337 Calendar & Moon watch.

Creating a fine, classic design watch that is recognizable at first glance is not an easy task. This is what Breguet has achieved with its Classique collection, cultivating unmistakable signs that are as many hallmarks of the brand’s timepieces.
