Introducing the Breguet Classique Tourbillon 3358
A symbol of sophistication and precision, the Breguet Classique Tourbillon 3358 (Ref. 3358BB/8D/986 D0) showcases the brand’s timeless elegance and technical prowess. Its standout feature is a mesmerizing double display, with an hours chapter positioned at 12 o’clock and a tourbillon at 6 o’clock, reflecting the harmonious balance between artistry and mechanics. Crafted from 18K white gold and adorned with a symphony of diamonds, this timepiece is a masterpiece for the modern connoisseur of fine watchmaking.
The Classique Tourbillon 3358 transcends the boundaries of horological design, combining exquisite craftsmanship with celestial-inspired aesthetics. Available in both white gold and rose gold variations, the watch’s dial is a canvas of luxury and elegance. The pearled and varnished mother-of-pearl dial on the white gold model evokes the serenity of a midnight sky, while the natural white mother-of-pearl on the rose gold version exudes purity and refinement. Encircled by dazzling diamonds and adorned with the “snow-setting” technique, the tourbillon and hours chapter create a visual spectacle that captivates with every glance.
At the heart of the Classique Tourbillon 3358 lies the manually wound Calibre 187D, a testament to Breguet’s dedication to precision and innovation. This intricate movement powers the iconic tourbillon, a complication originally invented by Abraham-Louis Breguet to counteract the effects of gravity on timekeeping.

In the white gold model, scattered diamonds mimic stars across a midnight blue backdrop, while the tourbillon shaft sparkles like a shooting star in the night sky. In the rose gold variant, the natural white mother-of-pearl hours chapter is surrounded by diamonds, creating a radiant, luminous effect. The intricate gem-setting techniques, including the mesmerizing “snow-setting,” transform the dial into a celestial masterpiece that celebrates the beauty of the cosmos.
The 35mm case, crafted from 18K white gold, is a study in refined proportions and luxurious detailing. With a slender 9.4mm thickness, the watch sits gracefully on the wrist, offering both comfort and elegance.

Every curve and contour of the case reflects Breguet’s commitment to timeless design and meticulous craftsmanship.
Complementing the exquisite design of the watch is a luxurious alligator leather strap, chosen for its rich texture and supple feel.
