Born in the 1980s, the Breguet 3237 is destined to be an unavoidable classic in watchmaking history. Designed under the leadership of independent watchmaker Daniel Roth, this model's design is so well-executed that it has been extensively analyzed by renowned watch media such as Monochrome and A Collected Man.
The historical significance of the Lemania 2310 movement is repeatedly proven in legendary models like the Patek Philippe 3970, 5070, Vacheron Constantin 47101, and Omega Speedmaster.
The dial features silver-plated hand guilloché engraving, a two-register chronograph layout, a balance wheel with adjustable weights, a Breguet overcoil, and meticulous finishing on every screw, edge, swan-neck regulator, and column wheel — every detail is crafted with utmost precision and sincerity.
The main dial sports a barleycorn pattern, while the two subdials feature a wave pattern, offering a mesmerizing interplay of light and texture. This reflects Breguet’s unwavering commitment to classical aesthetics.
As a unique single chronograph model from Daniel Roth’s era at Breguet, this watch fulfills almost every collector’s dream. The watchmaker is the soul of a timepiece, and Roth’s own independent brand watches — using the same chronograph movement — have recently reached auction prices upwards of USD 100,000.
The smaller case diameter and long lugs not only ensure a better fit but are also a hallmark of masterpieces like the Dufour Simplicity and vintage Patek Philippe models, making them particularly beloved by collectors.
Rarity also adds to its value; although produced over more than a decade, the total number of Breguet 3237s in existence is under a thousand, with very few retaining pristine case lines and precious metal hallmarks.
The 3237 we are sharing today was acquired by the owner years ago at a major auction house, worn rarely, and remains in like-new condition, complete with its original box.
The watch has been inspected and authenticated by our workshop— all parts are original, timekeeping is excellent, and it is available immediately.
