The tourbillon is a classic feature that encloses the balance, balance spring and escapement in a rotating cage, so as to cancel out the effects on gravity on timekeeping. Presented in a 41mm platinum case, Breguet’s Tradition Tourbillon 7047 takes things a step further with another classic component, the fusee-and-chain mechanism, which ensures a constant supply of energy to the movement.
