The replica Breguet 7787 BR recreates the Classique 7787 in rose gold, the reference that pairs a moonphase with a power-reserve indicator on a finely textured dial. It is the model most buyers look for when they want Breguet's dress-watch elegance and a real complication on the wrist. This guide covers what is worth checking before you order.
Key Features
- Rose gold-tone case with the signature fluted mid-band
- Hand-guilloche style dial texture with printed Roman numerals
- Moonphase aperture at 6 o'clock with a two-tone night sky disc
- Power-reserve scale at 2 o'clock showing remaining running time
- Blued-style Breguet hands with the classic hollow moon tips
- Automatic movement with sweeping seconds and a 40-hour reserve
- Sapphire crystal and exhibition case back
- Alligator-embossed leather strap with a signed pin buckle
Materials and Specifications
The case measures roughly 39 mm across and about 10 mm thick, so it sits close to the wrist under a shirt cuff. Lug width is 20 mm, which makes strap swaps straightforward with standard aftermarket bands. The front and back are sapphire, the case is finished in a warm rose gold tone, and the dial carries a subtle guilloche-style pattern that shifts under light. Water resistance is rated for splashes only, so keep it away from swimming and showers. The movement is automatic and drives both the moonphase disc and the power-reserve hand, running for around 40 hours once fully wound.
Shipping and Returns
Orders are packed discreetly and dispatched within a few business days, with tracking details sent once the parcel leaves. Each watch is checked and protected with film on the crystal and case before boxing. If something is not right, returns are accepted within the stated window as long as the watch is unworn and the protective stickers and packaging are intact.
Is the moonphase display functional?
Yes. On this version the moonphase aperture is driven by the movement rather than being a printed decoration, and it advances gradually through the lunar cycle.
Does it work as an everyday watch?
It can be worn daily thanks to the automatic movement and comfortable leather strap, but the splash-only water resistance and polished finish mean it is better suited to office and evening wear than rough outdoor use.
How close is it to the original reference?
It follows the original proportions, dial layout, and hands closely, which is why the 7787 is one of the easier Classique models to reproduce convincingly. Small differences in dial sheen and case weight are the usual giveaways under close inspection.
