Wonderful pics as usual, Henrik. A word or two about symmetry….

As far as I can tell from your photos, a center line can be drawn through (top to bottom) the 15 (moon phase) the XII (hour) the center pinion, and the VI. The wonderfully quirky thing is the offset small seconds. But what is even better, for me, is the f... 

I will try to get an answer to it...

... and circle back once I have it. Asymmetry is a signature element of Breguet reaching back to the time of A.-L. Breguet. Therefore I would not be surprised if there was no technical reason but it’s purely a aesthetic choice taken deliberately. Thank yo...

But your pics are impeccable, I am really enjoying the view of the WG blue guilloche dial.

On the RG version it would have been nice...

...for the moon to be RG also. It would stand out more against the light-colored guilloche 'clouds.'

That blue dial is to die for

Even better in reality! [nt]

Blue dial is one of their recent best, I think

The movement side is not quite as nice as the dial, though. The position of the rotor leaves some space that could be better used, I think, in keeping with the use of space on the dial. Maybe off-center rotor + movement-side power reserve would be a bette... 

Lovely pieces

As the dial is of solid, is the blue coming from blued gold?

Like the famous blued gold dial from an Ellipse? I am not sure if I like the 7337 or the 7137 more. However: I like them both a lot! Thank you for the impressions.
