What makes this watch truly special is its beautifully balanced chronograph complication, seamlessly integrated into the dial while maintaining the refined symmetry that Breguet is celebrated for. The guilloché silver dial, crafted using traditional engine-turning techniques, adds an exquisite sense of depth and texture. The Roman numerals, slim chronograph subdials, and elegant blued steel hands collectively evoke a sense of old-world charm, making it a watch that feels as timeless as the brand’s storied heritage. The 3230BA represents not only technical mastery but also an appreciation for the artistry of traditional watchmaking, a quality that has made early Breguet references an enduring symbol of prestige.
At its heart beats a manually wound ébauche 2310 Lemania movement, revered as one of the finest chronograph calibers ever created. Visible through the sapphire caseback, the movement is meticulously finished, featuring polished bevels, Geneva stripes, and Breguet’s signature attention to detail. For collectors, this early reference holds a special place in the world of horology. This is not just as a timepiece, but as a connection to Abraham-Louis Breguet’s pioneering spirit. The Breguet 3230BA Chronograph is more than a watch; it’s a testament to the enduring elegance and innovation that has defined the brand for centuries.
