A Tribute to Mastery

Inspired by its legacy as the official chronometer supplier to the French Royal Navy, the Marine 5517 goes beyond the ordinary, channeling the spirit of seafarers while delivering a refined and contemporary presence for today’s wearer.
Case and Dimensions
At the core is a 40mm titanium case, robust yet lightweight, offering exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Its satin-brushed finish creates a sophisticated appearance, while polished bevels lend a luxurious contrast. This balance of strength and elegance showcases Breguet’s masterful finishing techniques, making the titanium case a defining feature of the timepiece.
Dial and Design Details
The signature fluted caseband, a hallmark of Breguet, adds texture and heritage. The sunburst blue dial, inspired by the ocean’s movement, features an intricate wave-like guilloché pattern created using traditional engine-turning techniques. The dial is enhanced by bold Roman numerals with a modern twist and Breguet’s iconic open-tipped, blued steel hands, offering a perfect blend of legibility, elegance, and tradition.
Functional Features
A discreet date window at 3 o’clock ensures practical functionality without breaking the design harmony. The chapter ring with minute markers adds precision. Inside beats the Calibre 777A self-winding movement, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering a 55-hour power reserve. Decorative finishes like Geneva stripes, perlage, and chamfered bridges can be admired through the transparent sapphire caseback. With 100m water resistance, the Marine 5517 is built for both aquatic exploration and daily wear, maintaining a graceful silhouette throughout.
Strap and Wearability
The timepiece is completed by a luxurious alligator leather strap, ensuring both comfort and elegance. The stainless steel folding clasp, engraved with the Breguet logo, adds a refined finishing touch. Every component is crafted with the wearer’s experience in mind, showcasing Breguet’s attention to detail.
