Ref. 5539 was launched in 2013, replacing the Ref. 5339. It was made available only in white gold, and this year at Basel a version with a blue dial was released. The model is coveted by collectors for its Officier-style case and handsome enamel dial with Breguet numerals. The simplicity of the design of the watch belies its extraordinarily complex movement featuring both a tourbillon and a minute repeating function. According to our research, the present lot is one of only two to appear at auction.
