Oh yeah, small crown plus takes force to wind
65hr power reserve, plus winter hands.
It's doable, just not pure pleasure like with my Breguets.
VC has offered me a complimentary winding tool. The enamel Breguet and the VC are still tops at the moment. I do like the tonneau Breguet, though!
Please share your thoughts on some watches I tried on recently
Dear friends, please let me know what you think of these watches, which are mostly the ones I would think about for 2018 (never too soon to consider!) Although each is different, they are all interesting, mostly Breguet and one special VC. Thr first is th...
Four totally different watches here.
Personal preference comes into play. I would pick the Vacheron, although I like the Tradition a lot. Aris
I know! I'm just teasing :P!
It's all done with warm regards! The VC even if the wind is painful? It must be head-and-shoulder above for you to sacrifice my fingers!
Cheeky monkey 😊
You already know my selection but if the VC had not this specific guilloché dial, I think I would have select the 7787 with its enamel dial. Both so Breguet and so pocket watch style. Best wishes Alkiro
It is possible to buy a small Bergeon tool which slips over the crown and makes it easy to wind
There are 4 sizes — you just need to know the size of the Vacheron crown and you are set for $35. Cazalea
You just changed my life.
Looking that up now! Thanks! Was the VC the pick of the set for you, too?
I looks like I'm a little late.
Have you chosen the VC? Can i tempt you with an enamel dial, that makes room for a moon phase?
Not late! My mind is open! Even other watches are welcome!
Is this a Lange of which you speak?
Wait! Come baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack
This is karma for when I ate a turkey sandwich in front of a cat without giving him any.
Love Heritage shape
Love the Heritage Tonneau but prefer the chrono version as it has much more 3-D face not just numbers that appear 3-D
I would go for the tonneau shape..
Simply for the unusual shape for a Breguet .. I particularly like those hands. Looks funky. Retro yet very fun and modern. Otherwise, if you want the usual, the VC is a timeless piece. Can't go wrong with that based on the look alone since I never seen th...

Update, saw the VC again on lunchbreak
The plastic was binding the crown. Sans plastic, It's perfect.
Love the dial of the VC
It is simply amazing. However, while it may be the protective plastic, the rose gold does not look that great. It looks a bit odd.
The first one looks good.
The second one, not so much. I am guessing it is the plastic. Confession: I greatly prefer white and yellow gold over rose gold. However, from your photos the Breguet rose gold looks really nice.
Breguet does rose gold right, for sure
Their rose gold is not far from yellow gold (although the la tradition looked more rosy, possibly just due to contrast with the anthracite dial). In the boutique I had an rg 7337 and a yg 7337 and you had to hold them together to really the difference. Br...
My vote goes to Breguet 7787
You will not get tired if looking at that oversized seconds hand, and the milky enamel dial is super charming. Along with La Tradition it has the most original dial layout, too. The VC is charming but not distinctive enough imo. Whatever you choose, enjoy...
Thanks! I think the 7787 is on top for the moment
The VC is fantastic, though. Either could win. Taxes, first, then watches!
