As the specs were those of the French army, did the various brands use some identical parts, case etc.?
My watch for next week: Girard Perregaux Type XX…
… an exceedingly rare sight 🦄 Cheers, HSTE ...
Don't get the "XBreguet" ..... the type XX/20 were not Breguet design, they ....
.... were design to the specifications of the French army. And they all look the same, whether they are branded Breguet, Girard Perregaux, Mathey Tissot, Sinn or whatever other brand. But I am sure you know. Cheers, HSTE
...........absolutely! And the least rare are probably the Breguet. But ....
.... I sitll love them (as well) ;-) Here a side-by-side. Cheers, HSTE ...

„What is generally ignored is that the 2,000 Type 20 chronographs sold by Breguet to the French Ministry of Defence were never manufactured by Breguet. In fact, Mathey-Tissot assembled the 5101/54 model for Breguet“ Cheers, HSTE
