Breguet Type 21

We practically never see this brand or this reference here or in public. I love both. This brand has an incredibly history and legacy. This is my second time of owning this particular reference and I have also owned the type 20 and 22 in the past. This is my favorite of the three. I don’t think I’ll let it go again. What are your thoughts on Breguet and the type 20, 21 and 22?

I think they are great. An incredible bargain as well on secondary.

I love Breguet dress watches, I'm not as much into their sports watches... But congrats on picking this up again.

For whatever reason I love all of them. I especially love the history of this company.

i love it especially since Breguet has genuine aviation history with the Type XX contract and, plus Breguet Aviation was a bonafide airplane manufacturer.
Unmatched heritage imo; other brands can only dream of (and market fantasies) whilst Breguet is the real deal.

Beautiful watches. Do the type type 20,21 and22 all wear differently? They have different dimensions. What is your wrist size?

They are gorgeous. I had a rose gold 3810 which I sold, and now have this early 3800 which is wonderful. The 3800 is slightly smaller, no date, and wears really nicely for me
