Breguet

Please allow me, for once, to call it by its reference, not by its name, because I never understood how you can call a Tourbillon a Complication, even less a Grande Complication, so do we go for 1801? 1801 is a much better reference name, since this watch...  

that was a big watch 'back in the day.' It would be interesting if the oval on the front were left blank so an owner could personalize it (initials, monogram, etc.). Very classy.

but would prefer that the entire cover is guilloche instead.

is 'definitions'.....for example a definition of 'the trinity'.....it's just funny, simply funny that Breguet is not included there and other brands are....and I just ask myself on which basis??...I simply look at those creations and I could just imagine ... 

those that invent, that show and pave the way...and those that join afterwards....in horology, Breguet is one of the single still living pioneers.....a pleasure.....

I think to attribute Breguet only the Tourbillon, would be really an under-estimation.... as history teaches us, I think horologic pillars like the perpetual calendar, the first wrist watch, first seeds of an automatic movement....that's all goes back to ... 

Complicated: To build Complicated: To pay for Complicated: To service Complicated: To justify the price to your wife, non-watch lovers Complicated: To explain how it works (for some) Complicated: To pronounce (I hear TUR-BILL-EE-YON all the time) This wat... 

.... Sooooooo Breguet. I mean, ABRAHAM LOUIS. If you look at some of the stuff he did in the late 1700's, the DNA is obvious. I think you have fallen hard for this brand.
