Breguet is a Swiss luxury watch and clock manufacturer, founded by Abraham-Louis Breguet in Paris in 1775.

Abraham-Louis Breguet was born in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, in 1747. He studied watchmaking for ten years under Ferdinand Berthoud and Jean-Antoine Lépine before setting up his own watchmaking business in Paris in 1775. Breguet quickly became one of the most respected watchmakers in Europe, and his watches were worn by royalty, celebrities, and other members of the elite.

Breguet was a prolific inventor, and he patented numerous watchmaking innovations during his lifetime. Some of his most notable inventions include:

•    The tourbillon (1801): A rotating cage that helps to counteract the effects of gravity on the accuracy of a watch.

•    The pare-chute (1790): A shock protection system for watches.

•    The Breguet overcoil (1795): A type of hairspring that is more resistant to changes in temperature more... and humidity.

•    The Breguet hands (1783): A distinctive style of hands that are still used in Breguet watches today.

Breguet also produced a wide variety of other watches, including pocket watches, wristwatches, and carriage clocks. His watches were known for their exquisite craftsmanship and their high level of accuracy.

Breguet died in Paris in 1823.

The Breguet company continued to operate after his death, and is one of the oldest surviving watchmaking brands. Its headquarters are in L'Abbaye, Switzerland. Since 1999, Breguet has been a subsidiary of the Swiss Swatch Group. less...
