Without a doubt the most exciting Breguet for me. All the classic looks with some serious innovation under the hood. If I had the means one of these would definitely be part of my collection.

I seen one at a watch trader. They ask a high price, so i am still thinking, hesitate. A steel Marine is much cheaper, so i haven’t to hesitate, and that is easier for me to take the plunge.
