Nicolas (amanico) unearths a fascinating and unexpected piece of Breguet's history: the 1976 Regata Chronograph. This article delves into why this particular reference challenges conventional perceptions of the brand's design language and its significance within the broader context of 1970s watchmaking. Nicolas's discovery prompts a re-evaluation of Breguet's lesser-known ventures.

Another one I didn't know, which is quite spectacular, or to say it better, that I didn't see coming from a brand like Breguet. 

44 mm steel case.

Best,

Nicolas

Amazing watch, love the dial and the shape! Surprising that it came from Breguet; has a bit some flair like the Skipper and other nautical creations from that time … but from other brands. Thanks for sharing this beauty!

With lots of unexpected small scale pieces that are popping up now. Quite interesting, even if not perhaps typical Breguet 👍🏻

That was another reminder of the good ole times 😁. Plus, the loss of Valentino reminded of the jeans (even though I didn’t wear them back then ) 😂
