Breguet

New Breguet (LE 250 pce) A once existing model but discontinued, reintroduced with a nice guilloche and enamel dial 50.000 euro ...  

i would love to know what can one get, about this price, in gold, limited edition and brand new ? If looking at indi brand , many price much higher

But also very ambitiously priced 😲

I would have preferred hand wind though, but I’m probably in the minority.

It was the first thing I looked on the back side! However, this is also a Breguet DNA, so I can’t fault it, except the price!

Finally a modern Tradition I can wear.

Cant exactly recall but this is at least about 2x the list of 7037 back then? Since I have the 7037, I am not overly excited with this release.

While I love Breguet, it is hard for me to get excited about this ‘special’ release to celebrate their 250th. Looks like not much more than a slight tweaking of prior model, albeit with a lovely dial

It's the same watch with a bigger counter, that is partially hiding the power reserve. Was it too difficult to re-design it? Far from being impressed, another missed opportunity

I had the pleasure of seeing it first hand yesterday, together with the Classique Souscription. a very Breguet watch

But, why did they have to put the dedicated 250th anniversary ” Quai de l’Horloge” motif at 4 o’clock? Is there not plenty of space still on the dial?

Ok 50k is a lot of money but the 7097 ( in fact the same watch but the newer version is I believe 43 ) So you pay about 15% more than the regular production For 15% more you get a limited edition (250) you get the power reserve hand engraved instead of th... 

Agree an your point that the price is justified.

wanted to point to the seconds retrograde (like 7097)

But it is cool to add more hand crafts. Maybe I’m wrong, I recall from when JLC did this, with guilloche then enamel, that it’s called flinque enamel?

As an owner of the 7037 I can't help but approve of Breguet selling a nice new version of my watch. And as a certified cheapskate I also can't help but mention that you could get about four of these for the price Breguet is asking for one. ...  

...could do without the edition number at 4. Put it on the back of the case. Btw, 38mm x 12.6mm is chunky. That is Submariner thick.

But IMO not as nice as the deep blue of the Ginza And while I also love that "pendule" rotor - especially as it largely covers one of the least elegant bridges - the thickness leaves the lugs suspended in mid air above my wrist which doesn't work for me I... 

I spent a good 10 minutes handling this watch at the Boutique. The 38mm is great size and sits well on my small wrist even after factoring the straight lugs. There are some small internal angles in the 2 front wheels visible via the loupe, which probably ...
