Breguet Tradition Check / Thoughts

Hey folks - I just purchased a pre-owned Breguet 7027 and wanted to get some opinions. The seller I purchased from had good references and feedback but I'm not too familiar with Breguet and wanted to get some opinions on what I'm seeing now that I have the watch in hand for peace of mind. I don't *think* Breguet watches are commonly faked but I could be wrong.

Noticed a couple areas of what seem to be wear or tarnishing.

Front of watch



Back of watch - you can see that there are some slight darker spots around breguet engraving and the jewels




Noticed this seems to have worn down a little bit - gold seems faded or something



Closer look using loupe



Slight discoloration at 50 of power reserve indicator



Macro of dial



Thanks in advance!

Nice watch. What kind of opinion are you seeking? value proposition? authenticity?

What year is your watch, and what did you pay?

More along the lines of authenticity. I find this particular reference beautiful - which is why I bought pre-owned (I think pre-owned, these watches are a ton of bang for buck).

Upon receiving the watch I noticed a few of these things that I took pics of and just want to make sure that there aren't any red flags (with regards to authenticity) based on experience from the community. Either those who own this watch, breguet watches, or more experienced/familiar with the brand overall.

Thanks for the question - updated my OP accordingly :)

Breguet Tradition Check / Thoughts

Congrats! Owned a Tradition. When in doubt take it to someone with more knowledge - AD ? Boutique? Based on the photos I’d say it looks legit.

Owned a tradition and it’s a fantastic piece. Kind of miss it…

Awesome pics! Did you end up moving it for another piece? How long did you have it?
