It made for a nice engagement present (she already has a ring). She's very happy with it. I like the mother pearl guilloche dial.

Superb present. She’s very lucky
Do you know if Breguet is the only brand to make guilloché MOP dials because I think it’s the first one I hear something like that? Your 7337 is truly beautiful by the way. It’s the grail watch of one of my friends. Best wishes Alkiro
Thank you!
I asked Vacheron's atelier cabinotiers to make me a traditonelle with MOP guilloche and they replied "It is impossible"!!! Obviously not! Lange had an MOP guilloche small Lange 1, that's the only other example I know (of course, Breguet has several models...
You’re right about Lange. I forgot this one
Well, really strange from Vacheron (they probably didn’t care about that ☹️) and not surprising about what Patek told you. If you can’t find a process/treatment to harden your MOP dial, you probably have a lot of breakages. Thanks for the additional info ...
Huge Congrats with your engagement👏🏼
Very nice gesture to give your future wife this beautiful watch 👌🏻😘 .
Youse da Man!
spangles, Or Youse da Cat.... A pretty lady's watch. We visited a dial maker who specialised in mother-of-pearl dials with cutout openings and machine turned engraving. A few brands use them so it is not "impossible" as you found. But they are rare. Congr...
Thanks, MTF!
I want to hear more about this dial maker! Did you do a special report somewhere that I can read?
Check the Zenith forum
Magnus did a report of the PuristS on Tour visit in 2015 to Zenith and their supplier dial maker. We are not allowed to divulge all the client brands, of course. Regards, MTF
Time runs faster than you think - that was in 2014 already... (more)
the reports are here: Part 1 & 2 Part 3 & 4 As you can see, they have a fully equipped guillochage workshop, inclusing several ancient rose engines. They also prodced dials for Breguet, but I have not seen guilloched MOP. Do you have a pic, MTF? Best, Mag...
The watches are both very beautiful
Her engagement present is particularly nice, I often don’t like ladies watches but this one is truely beautiful. Nice choice!
She picked it out herself!
We went to all the boutiques as she wanted to appreciate my passion for watches better. Just for fun, she tried on things and came to a favorite...this Breguet! I bought it for her as a surprise!
Very good taste I must say
This is a very elegant Breguet, even the diamonds are tastefully done.
