Hands-On: With The Breguet Classique Tourbillon Extra-Plat Automatique 5377, The World's Thinnes
With its namesake the inventor of the tourbillon, Breguet has a lot to live up to when it comes to innovating the complication. The Classique Tourbillion Extra-Plat Automatique 5377 does not disappoint. Not only is the watch extremely thin (the thinnest automatic tourbillon in the world), but the off-center tourbillon also uses a titanium cage surrounding an anti-magnetic escapement. The styling still refers to the classic guilloché dials that Breguet is known for, but with a slightly more pared down overall aesthetic, giving the watch a more contemporary feel.

I, unfortunately, sold my 243 just after this one arrived and it has since waited to for an appropriate match. The wait ended tonight ... I recently sold all my 24/24 straps and this is only one that survived. Quite Deservingly so IMHO.The texture on this strap is the very best I have ever laid my eyes one. The thickness is just right and the finishing on the edges and holes is something I have not seen before.
