GQ Spain just held the magazine’s first ever watch competition, and Breguet won the prestigious prize of “Watch of the Year 2016” with its Tradition Chronographe Indépendant. This exceptional timepiece has been voted by a jury composed of eight experts, all stemming from the watchmaking industry.

Unveiled in 2015, this piece continuously receives praises due to its exceptionality: Breguet managed to split the time and the chronograph mechanisms through the use of two totally independent balance-wheels, beating respectively at 3Hz and 5Hz. Faithfull to the unique design of the Tradition collection, this model is also standing out with a strong esthetic identity with the symmetrical positioning of its movement components, visible above the mainplate. The elegant combination of both elements culminate in prizes already received by renowned magazines such as Haute Time, L’Orologio and Revolution.
