Please help: Breguet Marine Bracelet, old or new? But first, there's this

Apr 26, 2018,20:31 PM
 

Before I ask for you opinion, let me share a few pictures of the new enamel dial version of the Tourbillon extra plat, 5367. Here is the pt version.



42mm, it's quite nice




And thin!




Look at how nicely the 7147 goes with my casual shirt. I think I'm in love. I should pick this up someday.




It's quite thin as well!




Now for your help! What do you like? First is this older bracelet.






Or the newer style?






This is NOT an option for our this vs that, but yes, it is tops! Thank you to everyone who makes a helpful remark...and thanks even to those who don't!

... since it appears less massive. IMO, a bracelet should complement a watch design, not compete it. Marcus

Good point!

So, the newer appears less massive! Thanks!

You have two different watches.

The difference is night and day love them both but you have to change your mindset. For me i woulg add a rubber strap a gold deployant. Way cool. Just consider you have several watches in one. Best Bill

Haha, darn it guys!

I do have a blue rubber strap as well, it'a great! But thoughts on the bracelets, please!

It's almost impossible to call Spangles, I've looked at them both also in steel - I edge towards the earlier 1st bracelet, but then I switch to the latest one . I think the newer

one makes the watch look a little flatter between the lugs - Is that a good thing ? I can't decide A lot of help that was !

Thank you! ;) [nt]

The style looks much more at ease on the wrist and to my eyes...😁

Thumbs up! Will I see you tomorrow? [nt]

....7147 blows it out of the park - just classic Breguet. The gold bracelets - the previous one has a more marine luk ( anchor chain round contours etc) than the plain jane newer one (angular). thanks for sharing

Ha, yes, off-center dials are an A.L. Breguet thing

The 7147 is a star. Thanks for chiming in!
