First Breguet (& First Post!)
Hi everyone,
After months of researching Breguet (and lusting after a Tradition), I finally acquired a lovely 7027BR. This is my first “heavy hitter” of any sort, and I am already totally enamored. Really a special piece, I’m so glad to have it on my wrist to marvel at and enjoy.
Looking forward to digging deeper into the Breguet world with you all. Hope you enjoy the pictures below. Cheers!

Lovely choice.
A warm welcome, and sincere wishes for long term enjoyment! Cheers, Filip
Excited!
Couldn’t agree more! Looking forward to bonding over the coming weeks and months (and, hopefully, years!)
Congratulations & welcome!
Wonderful watch you have here. I hope to see more of it and I also hope you enjoy it very much.
Keep your eyes peeled!
I can assure you that I intend to deliver on both counts! Certainly not the last you’ll be seeing of my Tradition (*French accent and emphasis* added, of course)
Thank you!
Glad to have found this corner of the collecting world! Hope I have many more photos and updates to share soon
Thank you!!
Howdy, Patrick! Big thank you for the warm welcome, means a lot. Wish more forums were as friendly and nice as this one!!! Happy to be here.
Totally agree!
Unbelievable value imo. So special and so underrated (if not entirely understated in rose, hahah)
Welcome and congrats with this beautiful Breguet.
I have a wg 7027 incoming soon too.
Thank you!
I hope you enjoy the Tradition as much as I have. It’s really fantastic, looking forward to seeing some pictures soon!
Great choice for a first "heavy hitter". 👍
Goid to see that a La Tradition has got such a high stand in your view of a serious watch. And what a serious watch it is!
Thank you!
I am well aware there are far “heavier hitters” out there (if I may hahah), but this has been a wonderful first foray into the world of haute horlogerie. Looking forward to learning more and, hopefully, trying out some really heavy hitters down the line ...
Thank you for the warm welcome and the kind words!
Couldn’t agree with you more, really just stunning.
Thats one beautiful Breguet. Still underrated imho .
Huge congratulations. Excellent choice. ...
Likewise!!
Ditto to what you said, it’s incredible to me that it’s still so under the radar. Also just wanted to note: I actually wanted to go for a white gold 7027 for months (and the white dial variant in particular) before a rose example came my way. The BB refer...
Glad you feel the same way!
Absolutely in love with it already, looking forward to what’s in store 😁
Welcome. This red gold Tradition with black dial and black strap looks terrific.
Congratulations and wear in good health.
Thank you very much!
I agree wholeheartedly, thanks for the well-wishes and kind words 😁
The coolest modern Breguet in my mind.
And I’ve thought that since I saw the first one a long time ago. Congrats, I feel the excitement. Enjoy it, and please share more photos and thoughts as the months pass.
I am in total agreement!
The 7027 was really the impetus for the open-work watches that are a staple of most modern indies, and within Breguet’s catalogue (particularly post-Roth) it really stands out. I will gladly pass along more photos and thoughts in the weeks and months ahea...
Unfortunately I am just the Texas Timex in name alone 😋
Solid gold Tradition is my Texas Timex, I guess! 🤣
Quite the entry.
What a beauty you got for yourself. Welcome here and keep the pics flowing. Enjoy!
Thank you!!
Glad to be here. You can certainly expect more photos/thoughts in the near future
Thank you for the welcome!
Trust me, I am (unfortunately) well aware… But such is the nature of this hobby/disease, right?! Just going to enjoy the ride
Congrats for this beauty and welcome to WPS.
You have got a gorgeous Tradition. This piece is exceptionnal 🤩🤩🤩. Lucky you. Enjoy!
Much appreciated!! :)
Glad to be here (and glad that you share my sentiment about the Tradition, what a special piece 😁 I am most definitely very lucky). Cheers 🍻
Some phone shots from today, in case you’d like to check them out!
Hope y’all enjoy. Having a blast with the Tradition already… ...
What a fine piece, congrats!
Last week finally I had the chance to see a Tradition in metal and it was something to behold. One of the finest watches of our time.
Thank you!
This is actually the first Breguet, let alone Tradition, I’ve seen in the metal… 😅 took a chance, and I am so glad I did! I agree, it really is a special piece and, I hope, potentially a future classic. Who knows? 🤷🏻♂️ even if it never gets popular, I co...
