My first photos of one of my summer watches, the only one I have on loan. Will have to give it back with huge regrets this week. The dial is crazy. Ok, the hands have to be relumed, which is not a tough issue to solve. The day I received it: A dream, this...

Crazy cool.

A huge love affair. If only I had the means....

That is an Amazing dial color and layout! I would hate returning it. How well does it keep time?

Cool. One minute after one week.

That is impressive

Not bad, indeed.

Oh my goodness.

Yes, it stole my heart. I will see if I can sell some of my watches to get it.

Nothing new beats the history, the patina and the stories this lovely piece posesses

Yep. I will do my best to find a solution. This is the kind of watches which makes me want to sell some of my watches for it.

I hope it works out for you.

Merci beaucoup. We'll see.

This I like a lot!

Despite the lack of date? :)))))

Sometimes you have make an exception mon ami

Excellent! ;)

That watch is spectacular

Late 50's.

Yes, that dial is very endearing — and the onion crown as well! It looks like it was made for your wrist!

It really is made for my wrist, less for my wallet. :)

This one is loaded with charm and DNA! Wow

Well said!

This watch is perfect just the way it is.

What I think. Maybe some work on the hands, and basta.

I would leave the hands alone, to me it would be like wearing a toupee. Keep it original.

And what if I find some nos hands???

A Real Dream 😍 what a beauty

That's why I am doing the impossible to try to get it.

The reward is worth it 🙏

Yes but the bar is maybe too high right now for me. The planets are not totally well aligned.

That happens, sometimes it is best to admire and enjoy

I am deeply convinced that it is important to not turn all of our dreams into reality. But it is also important to achieve some.

👍

Well, I gave it back yesterday, that hurts. I am really convinced to sell some of my watches to fund it...

Then it is a deep love ❤️ and worth the sacrifice

That will be a massacre... 5 or 6 will have to go... And not the easiest ones, in terms of love.

Ouch Ouch 5 or 6? That is a big price 😳

Depends. Two relatively big and two more " modest ".

WOW! That's a killer!

Thanks for looking, mon ami. More pics to come!

Wow!! A marvel on your wrist. Love it! Enjoy!

Me too, madly.

Did you ever pop the caseback and take photos of the movement? I trust that these are Flyback chrono movements, correct?

Ha, good suggestion. Yes, flyback.

That's a real stunner...

Something tells me we'll have a no date version...

Something or someone... 😋

Someone, too. ;)

Amazingly beautiful tropical dial!!! 😍

Bewitching... This one didn't left my wrist since then. Giving it back tomorrow is a torture...

Full of charm indeed!

Naaah. I have a good watchmaker.

Hope you can make it work securing this Breguet, mon ami.

A dream. I always dreamed to be able to score one like this. Now I have to find the solution to make my dream come true.

Great brown patina.

That's for sure. I couldn't sleep for 2 weeks. ;)
