The story · Since 1815

The story of the Breguet Marine

In 1815 Louis XVIII made Abraham-Louis Breguet watchmaker to the French Navy. In 1990 the house introduced its first Marine wristwatch collection after that title, designed by Jorg Hysek, known for his work on the Vacheron Constantin 222.

Chapters

  1. 1815 to 1989

    Watchmaker to the French Navy

    In 1815 Louis XVIII appointed Abraham-Louis Breguet Horloger de la Marine, a title only one watchmaker could hold. Breguet and his son supplied precision marine clocks to the French fleet, with double barrels and detent escapements.

  2. 1990 to 2004

    Hysek's sporty Breguet

    Breguet launched the first Marine wristwatches in 1990. Jorg Hysek gave the classical Breguet a fatter case, a more substantial bezel, a torpedo-shaped crown and crown guards, while keeping the silvered guilloche dial and Breguet hands. A world time and a chronograph followed.

  3. 2017 to 2018

    A new generation in titanium

    The Marine Equation Marchante 5887 opened a new era in 2017. In 2018 the 5517 and 5527 followed in titanium, white gold and rose gold, with a single central lug, luminous Roman numerals and a maritime signal flag B on the seconds hand.

  4. 2019 to today

    Integrated bracelets arrive

    Titanium bracelets with proprietary lugs came in 2019 for the 5517, 5527 and 5547, and white and rose gold bracelets followed in 2020. Breguet also joined the Race for Water Foundation in support of its Odyssey and made a special 5517 for the crew.

Moments

2018. Announced at Baselworld on 24 March 2018, a titanium 5517 with a blue clous de Paris dial engraved with the Race for Water vessel was made for the crew of the 2017 to 2021 Odyssey around the world.

Designed by

Jorg Hysekdesigner1990

Independent designer Jorg Hysek sketched the first Marine collection of 1990, adding a more substantial bezel, a torpedo-shaped crown between two crown guards and bracelets that picked up the case fluting, while keeping the guilloche dial and Breguet hands.

FAQ

What lug width does the Breguet Marine use?

Breguet Marine references use 18.5 mm or 22 mm or 24.5 mm depending on the reference and case size, so check yours in the list below. The most common is 22 mm (4 of 7 references with a known width). The Breguet Marine ref. 5517TI/Y1/TZ0, 5517TI/Y1/5ZU and 1 more take 22 mm (listed by the maker). The Breguet Marine ref. 5527TI/G2/5WV and 5527BR/12/5WV take 24.5 mm (listed by the maker).

Do all Breguet Marine references take the same strap?

No. 3 different lug widths appear across the line, often by case size or generation. Check the reference engraved on the case back or between the lugs.

What is the lug width of the Breguet Marine 5517?

Breguet gives 22 mm for the 40 mm Marine 5517, in titanium as in white gold.

What is the lug width of the Marine Chronographe 5527?

Breguet gives 24.5 mm for the 42.3 mm chronograph.

Can I change the strap on a current Marine myself?

Not easily. Since 2018 the strap meets a single central lug and is held by screws on both sides; the screw heads have a special shape and need a dedicated tool, so there is no quick release.

Is there a bracelet for the 5517, 5527 and 5547?

Yes. Titanium bracelets with proprietary integrated lugs arrived in 2019, then white and rose gold bracelets in 2020, closing with a concealed triple-folding clasp.

Does the Marine Alarme Musicale 5547 take the same width as the 5517?

Yes. Breguet lists 22 mm for both 40 mm models.

Help

What is lug width?

The gap between the two lugs that hold the strap, in millimetres. A new strap must match it exactly: 20 mm lugs take a 20 mm strap.

Measure it in 30 seconds

  1. Take the strap off, or look at the back of it: many straps print their width.
  2. Measure the inside gap between the lugs with a caliper or a millimetre ruler.
  3. Round to the nearest whole millimetre. Most watches use 18, 20 or 22 mm.

Strap, quick release or system?

Most watches use spring bars, so any strap of the right width fits. Many smartwatches use their own band system instead, such as Apple Watch bands or Garmin QuickFit.
