Incoming- Breguet!

Hi all,

Very fortunate to add the Marine to my humble collection. An amazing watch with so much detail and quality. Here are some pics:

Beauty!!! Great prices at the pre owned market for these!

Do you find it ok for dailywear/office? Discrete enough?

Good choice!

Enjoy yours!!! Works great on leather as well as the rubber bracelet.

I have a silver dial one. And I get compliments all the time for the beauty of it.

Thanks all - still coming to terms with it, really is a stunning timepiece. The finishing is exquisite.

Only received today - seems like a perfect daily wear and can be dressed up or down by changing the strap to an alligator one.

The watch is discrete but has presence due to the long welded lugs.

Thanks. Am very tempted by this one in white. Looking for a discrete dailywear...

Very nice choice. Breguet are criminally underrated.

Fantastic watch.........congrats!

I'm debating b/w BP and Breguet for my next 'outside the box' (not AP/Rolex/Patek) purchase.

Great looking watch! I love the dial pattern and that keeper adds a nice contemporary feel. Breguet makes beautiful timepieces.

Fell in love with it when i first saw it. But when i got it it simply doesnt work on my wrist ('7+). Rubber strap flairs which i hate. So it put it on a OEM croc (and chipped my lug when doing it). Solved the flair issue a bit but now i dont know what it is. Not sport, not dress. Difficult to give it a place it in my collection. Still have it but i will let it go this year. Looks fantastic (again) on your pics do.

Curiously, how is the legibility?

Its very good - the Breguet hands certainly help with that.

Completely agree, the build and finishing of the watch is to a very high standard.

The watch feels robust yet remaining elegant and light.

Congrats! I love mine!



I've had it for over 10 years making it the watch I've had in my collection the longest. I did have to send it back to Breguet for a service just last month.

Very beautiful, I wonder why Breguet watches are so underrated. You have a nice one there, Kudos.
