I chose the YG version based on the fact that...
it appears more in line with the pocket watch movements by A.L.Breguet in my opinion. To me the Tradition is about bringing back the appearence and design of the Breguet pocketwatches and for this reason YG is the ideale metal to do so. The WG version has a more "contemporary" feel to me and personally I would be tempted if the wheels are rhodium plated as well.

la tradition wg or yg??
tradition is the best Breguet ever. however a few recommendations between wg and yg?? thanks
The YG and WG La Traditions are very different ...
Hi ahd, Pleased to hear that you like the La Tradition. Abraham-Louis Bréguet is such an iconic figure in horology, and the architecture of his watches so characteristic, that many of us take enormous pleasure in wearing this watch. I happen to like both ...
Andrew D and Steyr have been very eloquent
I wil just add, that if I had to choose one, I'd go on a WG version. Of course, Andrew and Steyr re right abut the legitimacy of the YG, compared to the WG. Yes, the YG has a more " traditional " look on this watch. But the WG is just awesome, with this d...
WG for me...
I may be biased as I usually prefer my watch in white metal, but then the blued screws and parachute do look very nice against the WG background. The WG version also comes with a dark blue croc strap to go with the blued screws/parachute....

WG makes the watch appear more, the blued skrues, whels, ect. + it looks nicer on the wrist, love the model.. In the 24 cities (totally different watch, its marine) its the YG that makes the watch so deep and detailed, Did you notice that the tradition, h...
Clearly Breguet have been successful…
Hi SuperlumiNova, Given the supportive comments for both the YG and WG versions of the watch my take is that Breguet have been very successful in the choices made during the development of both models. We, the recipients of this, should be very pleased. R...
I don’t have the skills but …
… it would be interesting if someone could Photoshop a version of the WG La Tradition with the gear train in white metal (rhodium plated). As it is, I think I prefer the contrasts. Andrew
If someone can get me some good shots of the face, I can try
preferably with the face parallel to the camera as much as possible A
Here's an image of the WG La Tradition, Aaron...
Hi Aaron, I was hoping someone would come up with a new image for us, but I can't let your skills go to waste. This is from Alberto Schileo's first review of the watch a couple of years ago. I am sure he won't mind us using it. Don't stay up too late, but...
