Breguet - Breguet in Syberia WOW

Breguet in Syberia WOW

Dec 15, 2009,10:21 AM

Sorry, of cause, not in Syberia - just nearby. Ural mountains.

The place. It is big Russian then Soviet (Sverdlovsk) and now again Russian industrial city Ekaterinburg. When You will google it, You will find that it is actually just few steps from Moscow. Yes, it means two hours and bit more by Airbus 320.

The case. It was official ceremony of opening of the second Breguet boutique in Russia, after Moscow-Gum-Kremlin boutique.

The time - 10 of December.

The city of Ekaterinburg, is industrial (as I said), sunny and frosty (-20oC).View from 13th floor of newly built Hayatt.

Please look on boutique: is not it in the same colours as above photo? I found that amazing.

The music... Breguet team filled all the evening with music - starting from classical quartet - they played baroque and romantic music, while all guests enjoyed with fine champaigne.

This man from Breguet company - professional engraver, he showed his skills decorating platine for Tourbillon watch.

...no comments

Again music theme - the evening continued in restaurant, please look on musical notes of this man. Obviously he played his inspiration...

Delicious dinner was of typical Syberian food and drinks - champaigne, Maccalan, Bordeaux, fried foi-gras, steak of marbled veal... Sorry, not to forget some vodka and black caviar. Later evening flowed to bar in Hayatt with drinks and famous Russian jazz-band of Igor Butman, he is excellent saxo player.

And, finishing my report, I would like to propose wristshot with La Tradition 7037 (watch is not belonged to me, alais). I really like it, anyway to my opinion it should have bigget case - just plus four to five millimeters.

So Russian bears have all chances get Breguet watch without leaving their taiga ))

cheers - Alexey from snowy Ekaterinbourg

...ur gonna have the oil of the movement freezing ... I am in Beirut, and there is a breguet dealer about to open soon. The advertisement on the facade, is a breguet ad stating that it the watch of the Tsars and Napoleon, etc... Seems like breguet is real...

Thanks for the report, Alexey!
