Breguet - Quality and (owning) cost?

They are Breguet, Blancpain and, since the year 2000, Glashutte Original. The original names of Lemania and Fréderic Piguet disappeared, sacrificed to the maketing rules.


Exactly. They have changed the ownership a few times in these three Centuries and for many decades they did not produce watches but we can safely say that they exist as a watch company since the ALB times.


And you, as a Patek lover and owner, know that very well my friend!
