This year, Breguet continues to celebrate its 250th anniversary with the exclusive release of the Marine Hora Mundi 5555 in a warm gold case. Limited to just 50 pieces, the watch transforms complex horology into a true work of art for collectors and travelers who value exclusivity, reports Hypebeast.

Inspired by NASA’s iconic “Black Marble” images, the dial captures the Earth at night: shimmering city lights against deep blue oceans and skies create the effect of viewing the planet from space. The city disc can be personalized for any of the 24 time zones, highlighting the individuality of each owner.

The two-layer dial combines guilloché craftsmanship with miniature enamel artistry. The lower layer is a gold plate, hand-finished with meridians and parallels, graduated from light blue to deep navy. The upper layer is a transparent sapphire disc featuring three enamel phases: continents rendered with reverse engraving and grand feu firing, delicate clouds, and luminescent dots representing city lights. Each piece is unique, like a miniature nocturnal landscape crafted specifically for its wearer.

The 43.9 mm Marine case houses the caliber 77F1 movement with a patented instant-switch function between home and local time. Automatic date change and a day/night indicator ensure both time zones remain perfectly synchronized.

A sapphire case back reveals the golden rotor and the guilloché “Quai de l’Horloge” motif, created to honor the Maison’s 250-year legacy and pay tribute to Abraham-Louis Breguet’s maritime heritage.

The Marine Hora Mundi 5555 is more than just a watch—it is a luxurious accessory for travelers, collectors, and anyone who appreciates masterful craftsmanship, history, and unique design. Every moment with it becomes a miniature cosmic journey, where technology and art merge in perfect harmony.
