Breguet Marine 5817 - Review
The Breguet 5817 Marine is a watch that I have desired for quite a while. Its flitted about near the top of my wishlist for a few years now and I recently got the chance to pick one up on the secondary market for an excellent price. The watch, an early mo...
What a great review to read
You have a very nice watch, congratulations! It was very interesting to read your thoughts about a watch we don't talk that much about. Thanks a lot for sharing and I love your dad's watch too :) Cheers, Mark
Thanks a lot... and yes the 7337 is not a bad looking watch :)
The dial is a real work of art! <a href="" target="_blank"><img src="" border="0" alt=" photo "/></a> ...
Very interesting article, Tempocalypse.
This watch is a bit under rated among Breguet watches, while it offers an interesting and pleasant sports / chic ratio. There are several members here who own one. And all of them seem to be very happy with it. Interesting background for those who are on ...
Thanks! And yes I've read quite a few positive impressions here...
... it is perhaps too idiosyncratic to have the same wide appeal as watches like the RO or Overseas but its in a particular sweet spot for my tastes.
i have mine with the bracelet and rubber strap
I prefer the bracelet personally.......excellent review and bang on
Thanks! By the way do you switch them often? ...
I was wondering if the process is very troublesome.
Really enjoyed your review.

Nice review on a nice watch. It's a pity that this model does not fit my wrist well.
I've tried both the bracelet and rubber strap, and it just did not feel comfortable to me. I love the look of it very much, so reading any posts of it still makes me smile.
Superb review and pics!
thanks for sharing here with us. I always felt the Breguet Marine is under appreciated compared to the likes of the AP ROs, PP Nautilus and VC Overseas. The Marine is robust enough for swimming, elegant enough to dress up with and I feel it is a perfect b...
Thanks Robin, yes I do love its versatility...
.... I would compare most with the Aquanaut personally as I find both watches most "Native" to the rubber strap... I would choose the Marine big date over the time only Aquanaut every time. Just a matter of personal taste I guess. ... I wouldn't mind havi...
This is a great report.
You really gave us all the details and the reasons for your decision to purchase. And phenomenal photographs as well.
I have been a big fan of the Breguet Marine 5817 for a long time.
It also gets some real ocean action and is happy in the water swimming. The rubber strap is great and as you noted it wears a lot bigger than 39mm Thanks for the great review. Bill ...
