breguet v. lange
hi all,
first post of mine here, so please bear with me -
I am thinking about buying a simple dress watch by Breguet, specifically 5157, 5930, 5177, 5140 and finally (somewhat different and not as simple) 5207. Id be very interested in comments you may have on the movements behind these watches and how they compare (i read the piguet in 5930 is not that great?) I really like Breguet watches "visually" but am a little ambiguous about what I am getting for my money in terms of real manufacturing quality. I am also thinking about getting - either in addition to or instead of the Breguet - a Lange Saxonia (handwound), so any thoughts Lange v. Breguet would also be appreciated...
Cheers,
