If it had to be one brand, I would be tempted to say Breguet too. Beautiful collection by the way.

I think the reason why Daniel Roth get so much credit, is because he was instrumental in steering back the brand towards its roots, bringing back wrist watches inspired on A.L.Breguet pocket watches, such as la Chinoise, ref 3337, beautiful decorations, h
