500 thousand, every penny sold is technology

In addition to watches auction, many in the sale of the table, there is no lack of millions of grades. Even with $5 million worth of diamond watches, Richard Mir has an average price of 500 thousand. So, a 1 million 500 thousand Breguet, really is not very expensive.

The conscience is, this is a calendar Jiatuo flywheel, large complex watch plus time equation is awesome, but both are crafted dial or movement, it can be said that this is the selling price of technology and process. Why do you say that and listen to me carefully?. But first we say the name of the watch, it is this exhibition Pakistan Breguet heavyweight works - Marine Equation Marchante 5887 series of sailing time equation calendar tourbillon.

First of all, let's look at the time equation. Some friends may have heard the function, but they don't know exactly what's going on. Although it sounds uncertain, it is actually well understood that the time equation can show the difference between the mean solar time ("Ping Taiyang time") and the true solar time ("true solar time"). When the sun is flat, that is, when the clock refers to the local standard time; true sun reflects the sun's true laws of motion.

Within a year, the true sun of every part of the world is different every day. With the improvement of timing accuracy, clocks become the basis of measurement time. People used the time of the flat sun as the timing of the true sun, setting each day as an average of 24 hours. But in reality, the time difference between the flat sun and the true sun varies from 16 minutes to 14 minutes in a day. There are only 24 hours in a year, only 4 days: April 15th, June 14th, September 1st and December 24th. Since the position of the sun in the sky changes on the same date every year, the planner uses a special cam to plan". The cam is similar to the number "8" and can simulate the continuous change of the position of the sun by mechanical means (Figure 8 of the figure above). To ensure extreme accuracy, the cam is equipped with a stylus that drives the time difference lever and shows the time difference between the civilian and the sun (-16 to +14 minutes), which is the time equation.

But unlike the traditional time equation is designed, 5887 Breguet through two separate minute shows at the same time when the sun and civil. When the sun is real, the pointer is decorated with hollowed out facets of golden sun, which can be read directly and clearly. The form is simple, but there is a complex mechanism behind it. Only a few top tabulation masters can complete it. This is because when the sun is real, the pointer must meet two requirements: one is to rotate continuously along the dial like a civilian pointer; and the other is to adjust the angle between the hand and the hand pointer according to the 8 figure curve in two.

In addition to such an equation of time, the watch also has two major functions, the perpetual calendar and the tourbillon. The two windows above show the week (left), month and intercalary calendar (right). Below the window, there is a circle of Arabia figures in the inner ring of the dial, which is indicated by an anti jump pointer decorated with the anchor pattern at the end to show the date. The 80 hour power storage is shown through narrow fan-shaped openings between 7 and 9 points. The whole disk layout is clear and concise, clear at a glance. It is worth mentioning that the dial also used at Breguet guilloche patterns in the center of the dial, specially for the design of the fine wavy watch more vivid more button theme. In addition, the bottom right of the famous 60 seconds Breguet Tourbillon is also very suction eye, using titanium metal frame, Tourbillon bridge inscribed "Marine Royale" (Royal Navy) ".

The back of the watch is also very amazing, through the sapphire crystal cover can clearly appreciate its own 581DPE automatic movement, the bridge carefully carved the French Royal Navy ships "Royal Lewis" (Royal Louis), a box is decorated with the wind rose's compass pattern, automatic circular plate is located in outer core and let people appreciate more clearly to the complex movement of the magnificent.

Even with time, equation, calendar, Tourbillon and other complex functions, watches diameter is only 43.9 mm, weight is only 180 grams, but also has 100 meters of waterproof. 5887 there are two kinds of styles: Blue Gold Dial collocation platinum watchcase, priced at $230400 (about 1 million 500 thousand and 6 yuan); silver white dial collocation rose gold case, priced at $215000 (about 1 million 460 thousand yuan).
