Thank you-I hadn't appreciated the 5827 is white gold. Lovely watch.

Breguet makes superb watches that are, more or less, the equal of the holy trinity. Their guilloche and enamal dials are a treasure. The 3137 shown earlier in this thread is my favorite Breguet, although I wish it had a small seconds of the original rather than the pointer date.

Absolutely. Breguet has some breathtaking references. I especially like the Tradition line.

I've been lusting over this watch in white gold for years. Your rose gold version is beautiful too.

Absolutely beautiful watches. I've been circling around Breguet for the last year or so and have come within a hair of buying twice - just haven't committed to a model. I think they're criminally undervalued...and hope they stay that way just long enough for me to buy one ;).

Big fan of the classique and tradition lines.

Not a fan of everything else they make.

Altogether I think there is so much there with this brand, but what they make of it in terms of story around the product and and by diluting the product into myriads of more or less appealing derivations is really harmful to the brand.

I am a big fan of Breguet. I will definitely get a Classique, but I also like the Marine line.

I have a Breguet boutique in my city, but their are also 2 ADs. I wonder if the ADs discount.

Huge fan of the Marine line, especially the 5547. Can anyone comment on their reliability, accuracy? it was asked before but anyone have experienced with Breguet service?

I have a bit of experience as I’ve owned a Breguet for many years.

Mine is very accurate, requires servicing roughly every 8-10 years which takes 12 weeks and costs around £1,000 here in the U.K.
