The Breguet Thread - Post Pics

Wanted to have a place for pics of my favorite brand. I'm always snapping shots and have no place to dump them I'm sure others do the same so please dump them here!

I currently have 3 of the 5817 (silver, black and rose gold) as I think it's the most incredible value going currently. This being the newest:



I'd love to add a Tradition in the coming years most likely targeting the 7097 or 7067. Maybeeee will try to complete the 5817 set too but I think that itch is scratched with my current lineup.

5817 was my first. Then had beautiful rose gold 3810 but that has left. Now have added a 3800 from around 1997- gorgeous

Is that a question for me??
Wrist shots were cell phone, but the close ups were with a DSLR macro lens

These Breguets are so beautiful. I really don't understand why they are not better known. Although, keeping them a secret from the "crowd" has its own benefits.

Here are my two Breguet's! Type XX Revail Alarm which was limited to 500pcs in the Euro market. The two-crown system is pretty cumbersome (prob reason for limited production IMO), but I still love it. The other is the Type XX Titanium version with a carbon fiber dial. Sorry for the bad pics, as we know with the no AR coating on these they can be a pain in the a$$ to shoot, or I'm just a crappy photo man too!

The gold crown Type XX or the Rare Salmon dial is something I'm still hunting for!

I meant 5817. Your 5517 is great too! I’ve been eyeing a 5517 for a few months now and guess I was accustomed to typing it into the browser haha

I have to admit you put me on that trail when you said you had ordered one. I had never really seriously considered one as favored their pilots before now. I love a watch in titanium with lume.

Great stuff everyone! I have my silver dial on today. Found this dark navy oem strap on ebay recently for $100 and think its perfect match.

My newest addition and first Breguet! Could not be more excited about adding this amazing piece from a criminally underrated brand!

My Bregeut Tradition and a picture of the Breguet pocket watch that provided the inspiration. For those unaware you can order 8 volumes of the Breguet magazine from their website for free.

Congrats that is gorgeous!! I look up traditions daily trying to decide which version I’m going to go for. I think the 7067 GMT may be the one but I love all the versions its so tough.

I miss my tradition. I could see another iteration in the future. Thanks for the heads up on the magazine - just requested.

Another shot of this awesome piece. If this had the logo of MB&F, Kari or FPJ people would be going mad for it.

I went to an AD last week and got to try on a 7097 (only one they had) and it was just so amazing in the flesh. I still think the 7067 speaks to me the most but would like to see in person.

Thanks for the magazine link that's awesome!

I have an inexplicable desire to buy a 5517 Ti grey dial on bracelet. Objectively analyzing each component it feels haphazard and meh but for some reason I want one lol

What a sickness this hobby can be. I almost want it because it’s so awkwardly thrown together.

The entire 5517 line is scarily growing on me more and more. When introduced I thought meh a downgrade from the 5817 (which Im of course obsessed with and still like more) but as time goes on I like all versions of the 5517 line and its distracting me and my focus on adding a tradition next. As you said were all sick
