What's inside that Breguet? A Lemania? An ETA? I would guess no matter how nicely polished the Breguet movement is, the Daytona 4130 is a more durable, reliable, more easily serviced and equally or more accurate engine.

Maybe someone can explain to me how to read the Breguet? It looks like the minute-sub registers 15 minutes? Can you actually tell on the hour register how much time has elapsed?

All this said, I would get the Daytona.
