My final Choice - JLC vs Glushutte - a surprise winner...
A while ago I posted about trying to decide on a grown up watch to celebrate the big 3-5...
- I was torn between a JLC Master calender and Glashutte Panoreserve - I knew that I wanted a precious metal on leather ( a 'grown up' watch) So here is the winner !! By superdoc at 2011-07-04 [IMG] |

Nice choice!
I'm guessing you spent a little more than you first planned though... did you consider Lange then? |

Funny I always thought that the lange would be the one - but the finishing on this Breguet is like nothing I'Ve ever seen!! the blue hands, the Guilloche dial.... the case back revealing a gorgeous movement, and the coin edge side case... It just sang to me!! Also looked at a Patek annual calender for a few extra pesos, but I figured I should leave something for my 40th... |

R.J. you gotta give us a full review of that baby and more pics! I was just in the Breguet boutique and checking out the marine big date. They are sweet watches and I'm considering one myself.
