Product Overview

The Breguet Type XXI Transatlantique is a masterful blend of Swiss precision, functional elegance, and modern engineering. Designed for the discerning gentleman who values both technical sophistication and enduring style, this timepiece embodies the legacy of one of horology’s most revered names. Crafted with a robust yet lightweight titanium case and matching bracelet, it offers exceptional comfort without compromising on presence or durability. The watch’s understated yet refined aesthetic makes it equally at home in boardrooms and on active adventures, while its advanced chronograph functions support real-world timing needs with effortless clarity.

Powered by the in-house caliber 584 Q—a self-winding movement boasting 25 jewels and a 48-hour power reserve—the Type XXI delivers reliable performance rooted in traditional Swiss watchmaking excellence. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered: from the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal that safeguards the dial to the luminescent markers ensuring readability even in low-light conditions. Whether you’re tracking intervals during training, managing projects across time zones, or simply appreciating the artistry of fine mechanical timekeeping, this watch meets those demands with quiet confidence.

Key Features

• A titanium case measures 42mm in diameter and 15.2mm in thickness, offering a balanced profile that commands attention without overwhelming the wrist. Its matte finish enhances the modern aesthetic while resisting scratches and fingerprints.
• The uni-directional rotating bezel is equipped with luminescent Arabic numerals, allowing for precise dive-style timing when needed and improved visibility in dim environments.
• The dial presents luminous Arabic numerals and hands against a distinctive ruthenium finish—a deep, gunmetal gray with a subtle satin texture that minimizes glare and adds depth to the overall composition.
• A date window is positioned at 6 o’clock, integrating seamlessly into the chronograph layout for intuitive daily use and maintaining visual symmetry.
• The chronograph module includes central seconds, a 30-minute counter, a 12-hour counter, and an integrated day/night indicator—providing comprehensive timing capabilities for sports, travel, or professional applications.
• The self-winding caliber 584 Q movement contains 25 jewels and ensures consistent operation with a 48-hour power reserve, eliminating the need for daily winding while maintaining accuracy.
• Sapphire crystal protects the dial from everyday wear, maintaining optical clarity and resistance to scratches due to its exceptional hardness.
• Water resistance rated to 100 meters allows brief submersion in water, such as rain or handwashing, but it is not designed for prolonged immersion, high-impact water sports, or scuba diving.
