We are always scouring the web for the most amazing watches currently available, and each Friday Shopping Time shares five standout timepieces with you.

Just last year, our colleague Paige Reddinger wrote that Breguet was poised for a secondary market resurgence. We think Reddinger was spot on, and yet only the insiders of the collecting world seem to have caught on. We met a gentleman a couple weeks ago at WatchTime New York who said that pre-owned Breguet watches were the best kept secret out there. Hard to disagree, and his Breguet Classic was lovely.

When it comes to subtle but brilliant details, few do it better than Breguet. This is a historic brand that’s honed their aesthetic sensibilities over generations, and like a fine wine, much of their work has only gotten better with age. And while we’ve brought you Cartiers, smaller Rolexes, dressy Patek Philippes, and even lovely Langes, it is really with this round-up of amazing Breguet timepieces that we enter into the realm of historical horology for the first time. That is, after all, what Breguet is all about.

As for pedigree, it would be hard to beat Breguet. Name another watchmaker who invented a numerical set that has been used by pretty much every other watchmaker, from Patek Philippe to Timex? Name another watchmaker who invented the tourbillon, the auto-winding mechanism, and the para-chute shock absorber. Abraham-Louis Breguet was, in a way, to the Enlightenment what Steve Jobs was to the Information Age.

Below are some of the most amazing Breguet watches on the market right now, from gorgeous regulators to complicated calendars, moon-phases, and more.
