Breguet 3460BA Marine Chronograph 18K Yellow Gold Silver Dial

The Breguet Marine Chronograph reference 3460BA/12/996, introduced circa 1992, represents a refined intersection of nautical heritage and haute horlogerie. Its 18K yellow gold case, measuring approximately 36 mm in diameter with a fluted “coin-edge” profile and six‑screw solid back, houses the esteemed automatic caliber 576, derived from the revered Frederic Piguet 1185 and featuring a 21K gold rotor and 37 jewels. The silvered, hand‑guilloche dial with Roman numerals and blued Breguet pomme hands conveys both elegance and legibility, while the chronograph counters and instantaneous date at 6 o’clock underscore its practical sophistication. With approximately 5 ATM water resistance and a screw‑down case construction, this model subtly nods to its marine inspiration. The combination of limited production, classic proportions, and a movement of notable pedigree makes the 3460BA/12/996 a quietly compelling choice for collectors who appreciate technical refinement and discreet luxury. Excellent condition with European Watch Company leather pouch.
