Close encounter with two Breguet Tradition timepieces
In 2005 Breguet has launched its Tradition series, a family of watches inspired by the rich history created by A.-L. Breguet more than two centuries ago. It was a great pleasure to welcome two essential Tradition timepieces for a photo session a few days ...
Fantastic report ... and superb pictures.
I am a great fan of the Breguet La Tradition watches. In fact, I owned the 7057 in white gold a few years ago. The only reason why I let it go was the size : at 40 mm (the real size even being closer to 40.5 mm) with the typical Breguet long and straight ...
Great writeup!
The Traditions are beautiful and intriguing watches, very fitting for the brand as well.
Love the retrograde seconds.
The best of both worlds would be an offering with that seconds complication and manual wind. Wonderful photography.
Thank you for this review on what I consider a very historic and important line from Breguet.
Here’s my 38mm 7037 from 2008. My first love. ...
Thank you, Jlux!
It’s certainly the size that fits my preferences the best. Have a great weekend.
Watches that are both modern and contemporary...
at the same time. Very difficult to achieve. Thank you for the report, Henrik.
Your words and photographs do not disappoint Henrik - Wonderful report my friend ! I think the hardest challenge for a manufacturer with such heritage is to combined the references of the
past with a new, contemporary design and Breguet has absolutely done this with the Tradition line. No wonder Philippe Dufour stated that this was the watch he would have liked to have made. Best wishes Will. ...
Bravo Henrik
actually I’m a big fan of the Breguet Tradition. My wish being the 7027 in white gold and Greg dial, pretty hard to find. ...
Great write-up and photos. Thanks for posting!
My preference is the manual 7027 in 37mm. It is actually the same movement as the larger 40mm (which only has a larger case and dial, with the power reserve overlapping the dial...). ...
