I've made the necessary amendments for the Breguet and Moser.

As for the De Bethune, variable inertia was what is told me to via the translator since Denis does not speak much English, and I was told it was a more practical form of the same thing that the RM005 and RM010 are doing. I will have to do some checking on this bit.

I don't have a wallpaper size photo of the La Tradition, but I will do one once I am done with the SIHH report.

Hi SJX, The Breguet Tradition tourbillon does not have a constant force escapement. Perhaps Suitbert or someone could clarify the distinction, but a fusee is different from either a constant force escapement or a remontoire. Also, the De Bethune DB24 does... 

Very comprehensive report on the watchmakers covered -

thank you Jia Xian - and, of course, the kind sponsor Peter Speake-Marin. Just out of idle curiousity - what made you choose the watchmakers you covered? Cheers, Dirk

Simple

The main consideration was whether the brands have forums here. That accounts for nearly all the brands. The rest, like Moser and De Bethune, were unplanned. I just happened to get the opportunity, but I am glad I did, especially in the case of De Bethune...
