Abraham-Louis Breguet pocket watch with moonphase and power reserve indicator "guilloché" silver, by Tavernier, signed: "Breguet", with Roman numerals on a plain reserve, auxiliary dial for the seconds with sector for the up-and-down scale calibrated for 60 hours, aperture for the phases of the moon, the age engraved on the edge. Breguet's design was revolutionary by comparison, and incorporated several new "inventions" that were far ahead of their time: two barrels to enable lighter main springs to be used, a carefully balanced "weight" reacting to the slightest movement, and an additional train wheel to provide a going-period of up to 60 hours. Upon his return from Switzerland in 1795, Breguet introduced his overhanging ruby escapement, which allowed him to produce watches of supreme thinness and elegance at a reasonable cost and in larger numbers; a considerable help to the re-establishment of his business. www.users.cloud9.net /~bradmcc/WPM/Breguet.html   (685 words)

Breguet "Gyroplane" helicopter - development history, photos, technical data It cannot, therefore, take the credit for being the first helicopter to make a free flight, even though the ground helpers contributed nothing towards the lifting power of the rotors; but it was the first machine to raise itself, with a pilot, vertically off the ground by means of a rotating-wing system of lift. Basically, the Breguet machine consisted of a rectangular central chassis of steel tubing supporting the powerplant and the pilot; from each corner of this chassis there radiated an arm, also of steel tube construction, at the extremity of which was mounted a fabric-covered 4-blade biplane rotor, making a total of 32 small lifting surfaces. Authorities differ over the date of the Breguet machine's first flight at Douai, 24 August and 19 September 1907 being quoted with equal assurance; on this occasion the aircraft rose to about 0.60m. avia.russian.ee /vertigo/breguet_gyro-r.html   (918 words)
