Breguet

Incoming !!!! This one is for Nico 😉😜

Feb 05, 2021,04:24 AM
 

Long story with this one. Been hunting this model for some time but it is elusive in this configuration (WG with fired enamel dial). Had one in my sights last year but the pandemic did not allow me to travel to get it so when I saw this one I did not hesitate. Maybe it was destiny as this one is NOS.

The dial is just mesmerizing and as stated in other subforums, I have a fetish for manual wind chronographs, especially Lemania calibers and specifically the 2310 base, so this fits perfectly into the collection to join the others.

Now the hunt continues to find the even more elusive BIG brother. The 5947 Rattrapante with fired enamel dial 😉

This one is for you Nico. Our horological tastes are very similar in a lot of ways. So much so that we could be bothers. 😊

Already know which 2 - 3 bespoke straps I want to order 😜🤣😂

BIG LOVE for me 😍❤









And of course, she is Yokozuna approved 😺

Huge congrats ! Being a strap freak, I look forward to seeing how you are going to dress this beauty.

Thanks 😊. I have a few straps in mind, mostly special tanning nubuck alligator 😉

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-05:12
It came with a very nice new black alligator strap with white stitching but I have a small wrist so I need a shorter size. Another excuse to order some bespoke straps 😜😂🤣 ...  

You can do better, indeed. And I know you will!

You know me well mon ami. Already changed from the OEM black gator with white stitching to this blue gator with red stitching BUT I have some plans for her and will be paying a visit to ABP very soon 😉

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:04

I can't wait!

 
 By: amanico : February 5th, 2021-13:41

Likewise 😉👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 6th, 2021-14:13

Congratulations. My favourite Breguet. The size, dial, and manual movement make this a brilliant creation.

The only other Breguet that compares is the Reveil Du Tsar with enamel dial.

For comparison.

Yes, exactly this one. Our fellow WPS brother "modernlab" had one of these I believe 🤔

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:00

Thank you and agreed. A fellow member has the R d Tsar in enamel which is also a stunner 🔥👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-05:15

Wow big congrats Justin!

Sorry, was busy running around ALL day today. Crazy day. Took a quick and dirty for you but will follow up with the next few days with some better photos and lighting

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-11:53
Here you go ...  

Wow! Quite the view!

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : February 5th, 2021-11:56
Thanks for taking the time to share. Such a nice catch!

Will take a few better photos once I have more time 😉

And that’s a Home run folks !!

 
 By: Horology75 : February 5th, 2021-04:36

100% agree my friend. Yours and others here pushed me over the top. Tough to find and so happy I finally snagged a NOS one 😁

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-11:55

A very nice one with a wonder dial ! Congrats

 
 By: Alfihar : February 5th, 2021-04:37
Ps : I guess your are in love with white dial and don’t need the black one anymore 😂😂😂

A very nice one with a wonder dial ! Congrats. One of my favorite Bréguet

Double trouble 🤪🔥💥☝

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-11:57

Ahahah

 
 By: Alfihar : February 5th, 2021-15:41
A subliminal message 😂😂😂

You are correct. I love white dials BUT I also love black dials 😜🤪. Dr. Mamadou has givene great advice 😉👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-11:56

Wow. Gorgeous. I’ve never seen this before

 
 By: baldywatchman : February 5th, 2021-04:57

Looks even better in real life, trust me 😉

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-11:57

Congratulations, brother, you well know how much this one is dear ti my heart and very high on my list. A pure marvel and I can even say my favorite Breguet, to date.

 
 By: amanico : February 5th, 2021-05:05

I would agree with you 100% frérot. She is a pure joy to look at and equipped with mt favorite caliber so she has the total package 😊😍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-11:59

Enjoy!

 
 By: amanico : February 5th, 2021-16:29

Stunning!! Wear it in the best of health.

Thank you kindly 😁😉

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:00

Huge Congrats my friend.

 
 By: Watchonthewrist : February 5th, 2021-05:30
Beautiful Breguet. Def something you don’t see that often. Wear it in beat of health

Thanks my friend. The fact that you don't see this type of watch everyday makes it more appealing and compelling for me 😜

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:01

Elegant, handsome yet sporty

 
 By: Gelato Monster : February 5th, 2021-05:31

All of the above 😉😁

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:02

Congrats. Superb choice. The watch is a stunner and wear with health. Cheers S

 
 By: Hulk : February 5th, 2021-05:51

Thanks my friend. I certainly will enjoy wearing this one. At least until I pick up another watch tomorrow morning 🤣😂🤣😂🤪🤷‍♂️. I know, it's a disease 🤦‍♂️

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:05

Congrats on a great choice Justin, that dial is pure pleasure for the eyes! Enjoy😉🥂

 
 By: FabR : February 5th, 2021-06:01

Many thanks Fab. The dial is indeed amazing to look at. Tough to see in photos but the enamel is just beautiful and the details are crazy cool 😎👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:06

Congratulations my friend

 
 By: Humanist : February 5th, 2021-06:45
Maybe I was too nice, not buying it? 🤔 No - I am really happy for you

LOL, you didn't even know about it until I told you so it wasn't even on your radar, LOL 😁😂🤣. You already stole one from me so thankfully I got this one...

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:12
Please remember our deal, if you ever let that one go, please give me first right of refusal 😉🙏

Sure will, I am the Robin Hood type of thief 😀

 
 By: Humanist : February 5th, 2021-21:10

Good one.

 
 By: amanico : February 5th, 2021-23:55

Happy to hear that 😊😂🤣

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 7th, 2021-02:20

Congrats !!

 
 By: mj23 : February 5th, 2021-07:14

Many thanks. It is no L&H Georg but I have been after this one for a while so it is extra satisfying to final add it to the collection 😉

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-12:14

Congrats. Love that watch.

 
 By: quattro98 : February 5th, 2021-07:54

Thank you, me too 😉🙏

LOL, well said 😉🤣😂

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-13:11

Beautiful

 
 By: MiguelFlash : February 5th, 2021-07:57

Thanks Miguel. The dial is indeed sublime 😉👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-13:10

one of my all time favourites. I purchased one last year, brand new, only to find out it was defective.. :-(

 
 By: agyzace : February 5th, 2021-07:59
Enjoy this marvel!!!

Wow, sorry to hear about your bad experience. Did not not know you purchased one. Hopefully mine will turn out OK as I have already fallen head over heels. 🤪🤷‍♂️

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-13:17
Maybe try with another example ? 🤔😉

Yes, unfortunately 😔

 
 By: agyzace : February 5th, 2021-21:13
Hunted it for years, as I always aim for new. Found it in Spain. Negotiated with the AD for quite some time. Then after I bought it, the AD did the final checks and noted that the chrono was malfunctioning (possibly due to the many years of no use he said... 

Sad story. I hope one day you change your mind as I don't think you should let bad luck change your desire nor opinion on such an amazing piece 🤞

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 7th, 2021-02:51

one always hopes for sure!

 
 By: agyzace : February 7th, 2021-03:14

+1 😉🤞🤞

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 7th, 2021-14:09

Stunning

 
 By: myles721 : February 5th, 2021-08:07
What would you pair it with? Absinthe, Suze, Sherry...Port?

LOL, they all sound good. Is there a choice for all of the above 😉

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-13:13

Great catch!!

 
 By: penfriend : February 5th, 2021-08:25
and it could be a sibling (including the strap with red stitches) to the black enamel dial that I posted yesterday in your thread ;-)

Yes indeed. I knew this Breguet was incoming and did not want to ruin the surprise so when I commented on your MB with the black enamel dial, I was so tempted to say more 😜🙊

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-13:15

Awesome grab!

 
 By: David Allen : February 5th, 2021-08:35
This in rose gold is one of my most coveted watches. They are becoming more difficult to locate as the years roll by. Perhaps I need to make my move. Take care.

You should definitely grab one while you still can 😉👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-14:16

Whoa . . . superb catch! Congratulations on accomplishing your goal.

 
 By: M4 : February 5th, 2021-08:42

Thank you. Always great to check one off that was on the list for a while 😉

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 5th, 2021-14:34

Great find, Justin!!! Well done. I have to ask, for your Lemania caliber 2310 pieces, are there any stand outs for movement finishes? How does this Breguet movement finish stand up to other Lemania caliber 2310?

 
 By: Chapstickjunkie81 : February 5th, 2021-10:08

Thanks my friend. Of all the Lemania 2310 calibers I find Breguet, Patek, and VC in par and of the same finishing quality. I would give Roger Dubuis (early pieces) a slight edge over the others 👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 6th, 2021-12:55

I love it Justin!! Superb acquisition

 
 By: aperna : February 5th, 2021-10:19

A choice of aesthete Justin, huge congratulations.

 
 By: ninolitaliano : February 5th, 2021-11:47
Yokozuma seems to like it, he curled his mustache

Thank you kindly Christian. And yes I also think Yokozuna approves 😁😺

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 6th, 2021-12:56

Many thanks Tony. I will definitely enjoy wearing this beauty 😁👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 6th, 2021-12:56

spectacular piece

 
 By: donizetti : February 5th, 2021-13:09
that spiral scale in enamel is just mesmerizing. Congratulations! Andreas

Thanks Andreas and totally agree 😜😁👍

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 6th, 2021-14:13

Beautiful 😍 watch and wonderful sentiment! You really are the champ 🏆

 
 By: oyster case : February 5th, 2021-17:31

Thanks my friend, very kind 😊 🙏

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 6th, 2021-14:14

Hid did I miss this one? Huge congrats again...this kind of multiple incomings are just great 💪🏻👍🏻

 
 By: Clueless_Collector : February 6th, 2021-09:06

Thanks again Raymond. Multiple incomings are always fun 😜

 
 By: holdemchamp1225 : February 6th, 2021-14:00
