Newbie with Breguet Dilemma

Hi,

I would like to begin by saying how much I have enjoyed reading the posts in this forum. Whilst I am no expert, I consider myself a keen amateur.

I have a dilemma. Hence, I would be most appreciative for any insights / expertise that anyone could offer.

I am torn between purchasing either the Breguet Tradition 7027 YG, or the 5157 Extra-thin classique YG. Whilst I love them both, the choice is too difficult to bear. As a young individual about to embark upon a political career, unfortunately, aesthetics can have a significant [even detrimental] effect. My heart tells me to go for the 7027, which I believe personifies the essence of Breguet. As Nicholas Hayek so eloquently stated, “the message of breguet is that we are the perfect marriage between advanced technology, innovation and beautiful art. With Breguet, you have Beethoven and Einstein.” However, I am worried that the 7027, which can hardly be described as a stealth watch, may appear too pretentious, flashy or unbecoming for an aspiring conservative politician. Nevertheless, when I tried on the 7027, I fell in love.

The second choice, the 5157 extra-thin classique, also speaks in volume to me. I consider the 5157 as a timepiece that engenders elegant simplicity. Hence, my head tells me that the 5157 is the safe, but by no means inferior option. Similarly, much like the experience of wearing the 7027, when I tried on this watch I found it emotionally difficult to take off.

Any-how, I would be most appreciative for any insights that you may have.

Best,

Dav1
