in 2020 Breguet also revisited the Classique 7337 model presenting two versions. The Breguet Classique 7337 ref. 7337BB/Y5/9VU and ref. 7337BR/15/9VU are matched to alligator leather straps with white gold or rose gold folding buckles. For both models, the price is Euro 42,000.
Together with the revamping of the 7137 reference, in 2020 Breguet also revisited the Classique 7337 model presenting two versions.
The first model is crafted from rose gold with a silvered gold dial while the second comes in white gold with a gold dial in “Breguet blue” color.
The 39 mm x 9.9 mm case with fluted sides frames an exquisite dial featuring delicate patterns whose variations differentiate the reading zones: circular grain d’orge barley grain for the edges of the hours chapter, damier checkerboard for the small seconds and Clous de Paris hobnailing in the center.
The golden disc of the moon phase display depicts the moon in shiny relief and matte grooves. The particular shape of the two apertures indicating the day and the date at 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock is taken from historic models of the brand such as the pocket watch No.3833.

Thanks to open-tipped Breguet hands and Roman numerals, the time is easily readable at a glance. The refined dial is completed by the individual number of the watch and Breguet's secret signature. Etched into the dial, the signature is all but invisible unless the dial is examined in oblique light. Still a token of authenticity, the secret signature has remained a feature of many Breguet dials till our days.
On the back, the sapphire crystal showcases the extra-thin hand-decorated 502.3 automatic caliber. To achieve the reduced thickness, Breguet used an open barrel that leaves the spring visible and an offset gold rotor, engine-turned by hand. The non-magnetic properties of the silicon balance spring enhance the chronometric reliability of the movement that beats at a frequency of 3 Hz (21,600 vibrations per hour) and offers a power reserve of 45 hours.
