Hi MW,
Hi MW,
Thanks for your reply.
I am sure they will.
Let's face it.... if Breguet can't get it right..... then what future do they, the industry... or us with our passion, have.
It seems that Martin Braun have done the right thing..... More about that latter when the watch is returned, but as I understand it is with Fedex at this time.
Kindest regards,
Jack.
Breguet failed again...Now they are on trial.
Hi fellow Breguet lovers, Not good news. My Breguet marine Big Date 5817 has died....... again. For those that do not know the history, this watch had a sticky rotor. I sent it back earlier this year while still under warranty and it came back after almos...
That is very sad news dear Jack....
,,, It seems you got the watch serviced but not corrected,,, Did the AD stated the problem of the watch, in the first place? In a problem I had with a Paul Picot Atelier, a YG one, they changed completely the rotor and the screws and all went well.... I w...
Hey Tassos....how are you?
hi Tassos, Thank you for your reply my cyber friend. Yes, the AD wrote on the service request that the problem was a sticking rotor. I am not sure but I think the AD is trying to organize some serious rectification as it is a Breguet.... and I have also b...
What a superb piece is the 5707!
I will tell you honestly: a watch of dreams I wish you the best of luck with both, Jack! Marcelo
Thanks Marcelo...
Hi Marcelo, Yes it is a watch of dreams.... and recently when my 5817 was in service I had the opportunity to wear it for a long time.... it is a very nice watch to wear and enjoy. kindest regards, Jack
Hello justpen...

5817 Winding Problem
Dear Jack: I too had a problem with my 5817, but thankfully my story has a happy ending. A few years ago, shortly after the 5817 came out, I purchased one from an AD in Miami, FL. After a couple of days I noticed that the watch would stop. I tried manuall...
Hi Mcuono,
Hi Mcuono, Thanks for your reply. I am sure this will have a happy ending... albeit a long one. My 5817 is also an excellent time keeper to within a fraction of a second per day. It is also my favorite watch and I enjoy every thing about it's simplicity a...
I am....
sorry to hear about this- it seems that you are quite unlucky about this watch. I would hope that Breguet fixes it and renews your warranty as a courtesy- you should really point this out to them or rather demand it. Please let us know what happens Cheers
best wishes
Hi Jack, As others, I am sorry to hear about your trouble. I have myself a Marine chronograph, the big sister of your Marine big date. The purchase is relatively recent, so the data point may not speak for much. Accuracy is not as good as yours (around +5...
Hi John,
Hi john, I agree that the 5817 model and it's variations are a great watch. I particularly agree with your comments about classical and style. As mentioned, of all my watches, this is my pick, and I especially like the generous deployment clasp which adds...
Sorry to hear that this Breguet has become stuck again.
I am expecting Breguet to make a speedy and thorough resolution to this problem that has plagued you for so many months already. Best of luck!
Thanks PatricK
Hi Patrick, It's a worry.... but I expect they will get it right ... Sooon.... I hope. Kindest regards, Jack
Hi Jack,
Sorry to that your 5817 has failed again. Hope Breguet get it fixed this time! As you may recall, I had my 5707 sent for repair. The hour hand didn't "click" when adjusting it for setting the date. I finally got the watch back earlier this month after 10+...
Hi Vince,
Thanks for your reply.... and openness. There seems a hesitancy by owners of high end watches to talk about problems they experience with their watch when things go wrong. Almost like buyers remorse..... I know of two owners of high end watches who regula...
Hi Ces..
Hi Ces, That would put a smile on my dial, and wind up my problems, all in a split second kindest regards, Jack
