As the others have said
both quite different. The JLC is more dressy, the Breguet sporty. Much as I like JLC, I would pick the Breguet. I'm a sucker for central chrono minute hands. The Breguet movement while not column wheel is unique to the Type XXI in the family whereas the JLC 751 is used in the Compressor, Diver, and slight variation in the Reverso if I'm not wrong. My only hesitation is that in enlarging the case, the subdials of the XXI are a bit too close to the center. But that pilot dial and bezel is a real standout whereas you need to look up close to be sure the JLC is a JLC and not say a Zenith, Heuer, Breitling etc..
Which one you like...

upset with me (and not for the first time) but I would choose the Breguet.... As much as I like JLC, in this particular model, I think that the date function throws off the whole dial... But if the date does not bother you, then you have to choose between...
JLC and only JLC

They are both great watches and visual preferences are something very personal but jlc would be my choice - for beautiful classic design - this watch will look great and in place on any wrist with any outfit. my best Rafal
