Breguet

Dear all,

Is anyone able to post some pics (especially the backside) of this tradition?

Ever since the Tradition is launched I am a HUGE fan of it, but I'm just curious if this automatic version tops the manual one.
IMHO the Breguet website, uhm, " doesn't live up to todays standards", and it does not help me any further.

Thanks in advance for your kind attention and help

Hi Gompie,

 

Below are the images that Alberto Schileo (AlbertoS), a previous Breguet Moderator, posted in 2006 when the automatic 7037 was launched. It is available in both YG and WG versions. If you search back through the archives here you will be able to access more information and discussion about this watch. The execution of the rotor was rather controversial at the time. Enjoy your research (and the pictures). Thanks Alberto for the great images. Your contribution was always appreciated.

That was just great!! Really appreciate it.

besides the power reserve is there any other difference between the manual and automatic versions on the dial side?

... at least to my eyes. You can also make out some additonal fixing points for the automatic winding system through the base plate under the second and third wheels.

The automatic (7037) case diameter is 38mm compared with 37mm for the manual wind (7027) version.

the rotor is something to behold and doesnt look like it will actually go round inside the case. it took me ages to work out that what i thought was a big power reserve was infact a retro second hand. nice piece indeed.
