Breguet Marine Nationale Deck Watch 24 hours.
Breguet Marine Nationale time instruments are not only wrist watches, with also deck watches. Here is a nice and original instrument, since it displays time on 24 hours. Credit: Antiquorum. A piece of History, something for Breguet Type XX hard core fans....
Longines and Hamilton also supplied timepieces like this with identical dials.
Commonly known as G.C.T. (Greenwich Civil Time) chronometers, they are all 24-hour dialled military navigation pocket watches that were widely used during WWII by US Army Air Corps navigators. Cheers, Baruch
Breguet was a true innovator. Amazing timekeeper!
Sad that three others retail brands stole their glory in the 1970s. Wonder what the politics were to force Breguet out? Has to have cost them hundreds of millions in sales. We need magazine editors and YouTube personalities to investigate.
What a wonderful pocket watch!
I like it even more than a Type XX, personally. Best, Emmanuel
