The look of these Breguet Marine cufflinks
In 1815, Abraham-Louis Breguet was appointed Watchmaker to the French Royal Navy. This historical connection now informs the nautical aesthetic of this range of accessories. These second-hand cufflinks reflect this inspiration through a bold, technical design. The central disc features a white rubber insert, structured by a repeating pyramidal pattern reminiscent of Clous de Paris guilloché. This choice of material complements the 18K white gold setting to strike a clear balance between formal rigour and a contemporary approach.
Architecture and jewellery craftsmanship
The structure of this creation is based on a clean, legible geometry. The outer edge of the circular motif features vertical fluting, a visual signature inherent to the Maison’s cases. The white insert is secured by a closed setting, flush with the smooth bezel. The fixed connecting pin links the front plate to a hinged clasp fitted with an oval plate. The latter is engraved with a stylised initial, ensuring the piece remains secure whilst being worn.
Why choose these pre-owned cufflinks
The pre-owned market offers the opportunity to acquire a designer timepiece with a high proportion of white gold. Producing a case of this size to special order today entails high production costs. The combination of solid alloy and matt white rubber creates a robust yet discreet accessory, designed to complement a well-tailored wardrobe.
