An extraordinary triumph of modern watchmaking, the Breguet Type XXII Flyback pushes mechanical limits to their edge with its astonishing 10 Hz (72,000 vibrations per hour) movement. This is twice the frequency of most high‑precision chronographs, a feat that few mechanical watchmakers have achieved due to the extreme physical demands placed on every component. The result is unparalleled chronograph accuracy, smoother hand motion, and a mesmerizing display that reflects Breguet’s eternal pursuit of innovation, precision, and style.

Developing a 10 Hz movement demands incredible technological expertise—each oscillation requires ultra‑lightweight materials and tolerances measured in microns to withstand stress at such speed. Breguet accomplished this through silicon hairsprings and escapement components, creating one of the most advanced chronographs ever built. For collectors and enthusiasts alike, the Type XXII is both a scientific and aesthetic masterpiece — a rare chance to own a watch that literally ticks twice as fast as almost all others on earth.
