Case and Dial Design
The reference 5130 features an 18k yellow gold case measuring 35 mm in diameter. The exterior of the case middle is decorated with a characteristic coin-edge finish, a design choice noted in the specifications. The case utilizes straight, thin lugs and is fitted with a closed case back. The dial is composed of silvered gold and is distinguished by a hand-engraved guilloché centre. Surrounding this central pattern is a brushed chapter ring carrying Roman numerals for the hours. The handset consists of blued steel hands, designed with the classic hollow moon-tip profiles associated with the maker.
Movement and Function
The watch functions as a time-only timepiece, powered by an automatic-winding movement identified as the calibre 502. According to the provided description, this movement is derived from the Frédéric Piguet calibre 71 (P-71). The auction description reports that the watch has undergone a full service by the vendor's watchmaker.
Signatures and Fittings
The watch dial displays the manufacturer signature at the twelve o'clock position, with the serial number 2557 engraved at the bottom of the dial surface. The case is paired with a leather strap secured by an original 18k yellow gold pin buckle signed by Breguet. The serial number is noted by the vendor as being in the 25xx range, which leads to the attribution of a date around the year 2000.
