Template:File Marine is a line of sports watches from Breguet since 1990.

Overview

Breguet is better known for dress watches and complications but the brand added a sports watch line in 1990, the Marine. Designed by Jörg Hysek, the Marine featured two key elements to add a rugged sports aesthetic: Crown guards and an oversized square crown. These complemented the classic Breguet hands for a sportier look. Later models added sports complications like a chronograph or diving bezel. Others feature a GMT and tourbillon and modify Hysek's features for a more dressy or sporty look.
