Looks like a Breguet Marine on a bracelet - maybe the GMT model. The lugs were the giveaway for me

Ha! I think he is a paid endorser by a company trying to pull the wool over our eyes and convince us to buy the watch. I don't think it will sell. Problem is, that company has no other models in it's lineup with enough horological interest to go head to head against the the other well known watch so the company is worried that the consumer may choose the other watch again!

I stared at a closeup of the bracelet - later in his testimony he propped his chin on clasped hands for a while. I can’t find any Breguet Marine that had that bracelet appearance.

Just checked and it turns out there’s a whole article about it! :)

I still think it’s the GMT model, not the chrono as the article suggests.

It's my Breguet Marine GMT! It's awesome to see a public figure wearing it.

Mine does. It's the newer of two bracelets for the last gen Marine.

Thanks and you are right. The watch he wore did not have 4 hands and the subdial at 6 o’clock has dual hands.

So it was likely this SS model selling under $15K on Chrono24

Thanks - I did finally find it with that bracelet.

And I’d like to say thanks to everyone for staying focused on the watch and not the backdrop behind its appearance on all USA networks. Otherwise this’d have been shut down before figuring it out.
