Breguet 7137 vs 7337

Hello everyone:

I am in my final stages of determining between a Breguet 7137 and Breguet 7337. I really like both models and they are approximately the same price. I'd really appreciate your thoughts on both models compared to one another. This is my first gold watch and I want to make the best choice for the long-term.

Thank you kindly.

Gerard

Hi, Gerard, welcome here, first. One advice, though.

If you want to get replies, you should pst pictures of the watches in question, as not everybody knows the references by heart. So, I made a search on the net and found these two official pictures. 7137: 7337: If I got it well, the diameter of both watche...

n°5 or "chinoise"... it is a classic question...

First of all I agree with Nicolas about the pics. That's a difficult question and at this stage only you has the right answer. The 7137 is one of my fav Breguet but I think that I start to love more and more the "chinoise" lay-out. I give you another opti...

Tough Choice

By: kahmed_ca : December 31st, 2012-09:09

Thanks, guys. I agree that pics would have been more helpful - I somehow couldn't find where to add them! I'm struggling here. LOL. Both watches are beautiful, and FX, so is the one you just proposed. I'm very slightly leaning towards the 7137 and like th...

There is something important you should consider.

By: foversta : December 31st, 2012-09:21

The "chinoise" (7337) has a second hand while the 7137 doesn't. This could be important: I know that some people don't like "static" dial. But you can't be wrong with any! Fx

Makes sense. Cheers.

7137 for me, but......

You can always buy both. :)

My Thoughts

By: kahmed_ca : January 1st, 2013-12:06

LOL. No budget for both! And they are similar in any event. I went to see the watches again yesterday. I liked them both! The 7137 has a busier look whereas the 7337 is simpler and perhaps more user-friendly. It arguably is easier to tell the time on the ...

3137

By: photobiker9 : January 2nd, 2013-20:31

I have a 3137 which is the smaller version of the 7137. I bought it because it was inspired by the breguet no 5. and also the fully engrave caseback. i have enjoyed it tremendously and i hope you will too when you choose the 7137

3137 even better than the 7137, in my opinion. Its smaller case is a marvel. [nt]

3137

By: kahmed_ca : January 3rd, 2013-10:39

Thanks. The 3137 is indeed a very beautiful watch and has much history attached to it. However, it would be a tad small on my wrist. Thanks for your response. Gerard

I have owned 7137 and currently own 7337

By: jkingston : January 2nd, 2013-09:47

I guess the fact that I have owned both demonstrates my fondness for this classic Breguet design. In my mind, the 7337 is superior in almost every way. First it comes in rg and I am a lover of rose gold. Second, it has a small seconds hand. Third, the siz...

RE: Jeff's Response

By: kahmed_ca : January 2nd, 2013-12:26

Thanks, Jeff. I hear you. These points all make tremendous sense although I wasn't aware that a smaller in-set dial is more contemporary. The 7337's dial is indeed far more harmonious than that of the 7137 and has a generally cleaner look. I'm seriously l...

Symmetry

By: MervC : January 3rd, 2013-08:32

Breguet 7337. I prefer the symmetry of the dial. Except maybe the seconds subdial, it off centre. But its more symmetric than the other modell. Symmetric dial usually work. ...

Re: Symmetry

By: kahmed_ca : January 3rd, 2013-10:41

Thanks for this. I tend to agree with you that symmetry is harmonious and aesthetically-pleasing. That said, there is a trend towards assymetric-type displays as well. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

There is a place for asymmetry ...

By: AndrewD : January 3rd, 2013-21:15

I used to think I preferred symmetrical dials, but experience is showing me that asymmetrical dials can retain my interest for longer. Symmetry can get boring! It's partly why that offset subseconds dial adds some needed tension to the face. Andrew

I got the 7337!

By: kahmed_ca : March 1st, 2013-16:11

Hey guys, thanks again for all your advice. I ended up getting the Breguet 7337 rose gold! I just got it yesterday. Took a while but it finally arrived. I'm quite happy to have chosen this model over the 7137 (although that would have been a great option ...
