The Breguet Tradition collection occupies a singular position in modern haute horlogerie, conceived as an architectural homage to Abraham-Louis Breguet's souscription pocket watches with their movement deliberately exposed on the dial side. The 7077 reference within this family represents the grand complication tier of the Tradition line, pairing the collection's signature open-worked aesthetic with a meaningful mechanical complication rather than relying on visual drama alone. For the knowledgeable collector, this reference is significant precisely because it integrates complexity without sacrificing the legibility and structural honesty that define the Tradition identity.
The movement powering this reference is a manually wound caliber developed in-house at Breguet's Vallée de Joux manufacture, consistent with the brand's longstanding commitment to producing its escapement and regulating organ entirely in-house. The carriage rotates on a one-minute cycle, and the caliber's architecture places the regulating organ at approximately 6 o'clock, fully visible through the open dial construction in keeping with the collection's design philosophy. Finishing throughout includes hand-beveled bridges, Côtes de Genève on the visible plate surfaces, and blued steel screws, details executed to the standard expected of a maison at this price tier.
The case is crafted in 18k white gold, the BB designation in the reference confirming this material, with the cushion-influenced Tradition case form housing the movement in a configuration that keeps the barrel and gear train visible from the front. The silvered dial sector carries applied Breguet numerals and blued steel hands in the open-tipped style synonymous with the maison, while the subsidiary time display is offset to accommodate the interior's visual prominence.
