I need to get oiled....

Hi Tassos,

Thanks for the kind words..... and I am sorry that true Breguet lovers, who have no problems with Breguet, must share my nightmare.

Every day I shake my head and wonder, Why?.... when they are aware that my big problem has never been about the watches .... but about the many months of slow service... Why does nothing still happen?

If Martin Braun can get a watch from Australia to Switzerland, fix it and get it back to me in Australia in 10 days..... of course I will be disappointed and unbelieving of Breguet promises when they take months and months.

The answer is simple..... Like a wheel that squeaks.... I need to get some oil

But there is always a good side.... now I can spend time to think and dream about which new watch I will by when I sell my Breguets.

Do you have any suggestions?

I have been looking at a UN 160 Anniversary Marine which comes with the desk box chronometer.... or may be another Rolex.

The bottle if still half full.... not half empty

Kindest regards my friend,

Jack

Would like some advice from forum members!

I own a few fine pieces of Swiss watches like Rolex, Jaegar and Vacheron but not Breguet. I visited an AD yesterday and looked at some Breguet's watches. There is no doubt the craftmanship is first rate. And I am planning to buy one though I also like som...

... I believe that Breguet is the Monica Belluci of watches.... Class, beauty, character...for those I can discard a very occasional problem... Waiting my 3rd (the 7337) I intend to remain faithful to class, beauty and character, eg Breguet!!! Tassos This...

My experience with Breguet is with my wife's Transatlantique Flyback

We've had it for almost 5 years or so, and it hasn't broken once. In terms of reliablity as a brand, it's probably the same as with all the major brands - you'll have your stories of some breaking on the 1st day, and that's just part of the luxury watch o...

Thanks for sharing your experiences with me, I really appreciate that. And I sympathize your frustration! I had a GP Chronograph a few years ago, I bought that from my favorite AD, it stopped working on week 1. My AD sent it back for repair and took almos...
