Breguet

The Breguet Expérimentale 1 , ref. E001BH/S9/5ZV features an innovative constant-force magnetic escapement and a tourbillon with a fast 10-hertz balance wheel ensuring maximum accuracy (precision certified in the scientific class: +/- 1s/day). Some in-dep...  

The hands are very difficult to see, a lighter dial would help.

From a horological perspective, this is probably one of the most interesting watches of the past few decades. Unfortunately, it would only have received truly extensive coverage in the press if it had come from Patek or Rolex. When a less “hot” brand brin... 

Cutting edge, new looks for the dial etc. So why not continue to do so instead of always going back to the past? Although not a watch ch for me, I’m very happy with the direction taken! Dirk

but the result isn’t always fully convincing. And remaining faithful to tradition has also its importance, imo. Best, Emmanuel

As it turns out from my personal observations here and real life talks with collectors, we all demand “something different from the beaten path” but in actuality we like classic designs and we vote with our wallets for the same exact classic looking watch...  

Very interesting and I must say I agree with you on all counts (except that I have only seen in person the Souscription and the Type XX)... Best, Emmanuel

It easily puts the modern Breguet on the same plane with the Master himself innovation-wise, which to me was always unthinkable. For this reason alone I want to have this piece.

and this timepiece seems to be both very interesting and beautiful if one likes a mix of modern and traditional aesthetic. Legibility could apparently be better, but the problem might be less noticeable in real life. I’m looking forward to seeing your pho... 

I like the idea of getting this innovative Breguet more than getting the Montblanc (that timepiece is masterfully done, but leans heavily towards decoration whereas I value the technical aspect more in watches) but I have formally asked Montblanc for the ... 

Let's wait and see how things turn out: Whatever the outcome, it will be something exceptional. I hope you fully enjoy your new L.U.C: Moon: what a wonderful timepiece! Best, Emmanuel

Engjoying the Chopard a lot, but to my surprise it runs slower than permitted under the COSC standards - depending on the state of winding and the position it gives me from minus 5 to minus 7 seconds per day. Not a huge deal but I will probably send it ba... 

because they are very concerned with precision.

It must have left the factory with the regulator positioned like that, as even in case of a shock it could have hardly moved by itself as it is regulated by a screw and swan neck system. But if this is how they set the regulator in the factory, how did th... 

I will take it with me next time I am going to Switzerland, in the meantime will continue enjoying it!

I love the case. If they release a simplified/less pricey smaller variant I am probably getting one.

Let’s wait and see if they do a smaller version in the future. Wishing you a merry Christmas if you celebrate. Best, Emmanuel
