New Release
Nasseriq's initial impressions of the Breguet Type XX Chronographe 2067 sparked a lively discussion among collectors. His appreciation for its aesthetic, particularly the color combination, sets the stage for a deeper dive into the watch's design choices and market positioning. This article synthesizes community feedback, offering a multi-faceted perspective on Breguet's latest iteration of the iconic Type XX.
The Breguet Type XX Chronographe 2067 represents a contemporary interpretation within the brand's aviation-inspired Type XX collection. This reference updates the iconic pilot's chronograph with modern specifications while retaining design cues from its historical predecessors. It is positioned as a robust, high-performance instrument watch within Breguet's sportier offerings.
This chronograph features a 42mm stainless steel case, equipped with a bidirectional fluted bezel. It houses a self-winding flyback chronograph movement, Caliber 728, operating at 5 Hz (36,000 vph) and offering a power reserve of 60 hours. The dial layout includes a date aperture and three subdials for chronograph functions and running seconds. The watch is fitted with a sapphire crystal and provides a water resistance of 100 meters.
For collectors, the Type XX Chronographe 2067 signifies Breguet's commitment to evolving its sport watch line. Its updated movement and design elements aim to appeal to both enthusiasts of the original Type XX and new collectors seeking a modern, technically advanced chronograph. The reference contributes to the ongoing legacy of pilot's watches from a historically significant manufacture.
They’ve been in the business for so long. Don’t understand why they can’t do something that most people want. A vintage inspired no-date chronograph. In the correct size. Best Gatsby
Hour markers (1-2-4-5-7-8-10-11-12) and small seconds (20-40-60) are aligned lineer, whereas bezel, date window and the other subdial are aligned as orienting the central view. It seems like a bit strange for me, beside I could not get the design language well.
Obviously. That aside, it looks pretty. But another stupid mistake is that the bezel font doesn't match the dial numerals' font. It's just silly and it isn't hard to ask for consistency, unless, somehow, it looked uglier when it was consistent.
I have a xxi and find it the perfect size for this watch.
really can't stand that. 3 subdials should have exactly the same size, it's an absolute NO GO for me when one is bigger than the other 2 Just checked the price ... I expected 32-25 K euro, 41.400 is a lot
Very nice but as others mentioned ould be fantastic without the date.
