Patek v Breguet - My Experience
T'is a long story how I got to own both a Patek 5053 and a Breguet 5920.
I do find that I'm wearing the Breguet more and more. Not only does it have a
100hr power reserve (more useful than you may think) but it is marginally
more regular than the Patek. I think I've never really got used to the egg-shell
color of the Patek dial.

nice topic:)
Hello Chris, some modest thoughts: If You consider a 3680 or 5207,the answer is simple:neither Patek nor Lange produces watches like these,not even close to that design.So if You are thrilled by their design You must stay with Breguet. Reliability should ...

Chris...I know exactly what you're going through....I did the same. I guess it comes down to what "floats your boat".....In the end, I chose a PP because of my PERCEIVED notion that as a timepiece (i.e.movement, precision, ability to hold its value), it i...

I was torn between the 5906 and PP 5196. My decision was to get the PP 5196 although I was more attracted to the 5907. The 5196 would get worn more. It looks good with a shirt, sweater, or suit. The Breguet 5907 is strickly a dress up watch and most at ho...
