Breguet

Following up on my previous post on the Breguet 5377 Ultra Thin Tourbillon and the Breguet 3797 Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar, I'd like to share a few pictures of the Breguet 7047 Fusee Chain Tourbillon. I was very lucky to handle all these watches at the...  

But I find it too thick. Way too thick. Not olny because of the sapphire. It seems, indeed, that such a sapphireis mandatory, and your pics show that very well. The movement, dial side, is very thick, too. My favourite is the original Tradition, with its ... 

My favorite is the La Tradition 7027 with 37mm case and yellow gold :) My wrists are too small to wear this fusee and chain tourbillon, but it definitely is cool. Regards, ED-209

the watch looks rather large and I am sure it is stunning!! the chaine and fussee is absolutely incredible. would love to see some videos of the watch in action!

Hi mjnournoff, Thanks for the compliments. It definitely is stunning to see in person. Here's a short video I made of the 7047BR :) Regards, ED-209 ...

one recently, Zenith Academy Georges Favre-Jacot. Any idea how practical and reliable this mechanism is and what is the maintenance requirement? I don't even want to know the cost of sending such watches for service :(( LA is good, close to all the nice s... 

Maybe it's a trend, and you're right that there's a few offerings from different brands with a fusee and chain. I think it's great to see these out a the boutiques. I'm not sure about the reliability, I hope that Mr. Kingston (from the post below) can sha... 

And a fusee chain is a beautiful piece of engineering and assembly. But I can't handle such thick watches When I think of Breguet, I think thin and elegant, unless I am talking the XX style watches, or Marine. At these price points I desire the elegance. ...  

Thanks Joe for sharing your thoughts, you make very good points about this watch. And that perpetual tourbillon? It's awesome and my grail Breguet watch! I absolute love the floating sapphire disc for the hour and minutes. I posted several pics of the 379...  

It was a pure pleasure experience! :) Thank you for this great report, Ed! Best Blomman ...  

Awesome that you got to get some extended wrist time with this Breguet! Regards, ED-209

I love the Tradition Tourbillon and am proud to say that I own one in rose gold with the black dial (as pictured in your post). There is, however, no version in white gold. The variations are: platinum with silver dial; yellow gold with silver dial; and r... 

Hi Jeff, very cool that you have a tradition tourbillon! Thanks for the clarification on the platinum version. I thought so too that the previous version was offered in platinum, but on one of my videos the staff mentioned white gold. Anyway, it's a stunn...
