{"product_id":"breguet-marine-3400sa-steel-gold-guilloche","title":"Marine 3400SA in Steel and Gold, Hand-Guilloché Dial, c.1994-1995","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe first Breguet Marine, ref. 3400SA, in steel with an 18ct gold bezel and fluted gold caseband, its hand-guilloché dial numbered 3714 to match the case. Complete on its original two-tone Marine bracelet, with its box and certificate.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 3400 is the original Breguet Marine: a 35.5mm automatic with date and centre seconds that put the house's classical details into a sporting case. It was introduced with the collection in 1990 and made until the line was redrawn in 2005. This is the steel and gold version, the 3400SA, from the first half of that run.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe case is what sets it apart from Breguet's dress watches. A pair of steel guards stands out from the right flank to shield the crown, and the band of the case is fluted along its full circumference, the coin-edge finish Breguet also gives its Classique cases. Here the fluted band and the stepped bezel above it are 18ct yellow gold, set against a steel case body, steel guards and a steel back, and the fluting carries on across the steel at each end of the case where the bracelet is fitted. The steel crown between the guards is capped with the Breguet rosette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dial is the other half of it. Breguet kept the hand engine-turning of its dress watches for the Marine, and the dial says so at six: Swiss Guilloché Main. The turned centre sits inside a plain silvered chapter ring with black Roman numerals, a dotted minute track and a beaded gold edge, and the date window takes the place of the VI. Blued Breguet pomme hands and a blued centre seconds, and at the top of the dial the signature with the watch's own number, 3714. It is clean, with the print sharp and the turning crisp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is on the original Breguet Marine bracelet in the same two metals: rows of brushed steel links joined by polished gold, gold edge links down each side, and a folding clasp closed by a gold cover signed Breguet. The gold of the bezel and caseband is picked up link by link along its length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 3400 was also made in solid yellow and white gold. The steel and gold version keeps the same dial and the same fluted gold at the edge of the case, set on steel. This example has all of it: the numbered hand-turned dial, the gold fluting and bezel, the crown guards and the complete two-tone bracelet, and it still has the box and certificate it was sold with. The marks, the movement and the condition are set out in the drawers below.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Breguet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55116198478163,"sku":"WW-0003","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1080\/3121\/3907\/files\/breguet-marine-3400sa-steel-gold-1_578fd084-483a-43bf-8de9-12ffb9962459.jpg?v=1790775023","url":"https:\/\/estatecollection.nl\/products\/breguet-marine-3400sa-steel-gold-guilloche","provider":"The Estate Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
