Breguet at Royal Caribbean
Breguet now reveals over two centuries of watchmaking tradition One of the most famous Breguet inventions is the pare-chute. When a watch falls or receives a blow, it is the balance pivots that are the most likely to suffer, because of their slenderness. As early as 1790, Breguet made them shorter and gave them a conical shape. They are held in place by a small coupelle of a suitable shape, which is mounted on a spring blade. When the watch receives a blow, the pivot, rather than breaking, is dislodged and then returns automatically to its correct position, sliding on the sides of the coupelle. Also called the "elastic" balance suspension, Breguet's pare-chute is the ancestor of the modern Incabloc and all other shock-protection devices.
