Thanks for the info. It's a nice read. But somehow,i'm leaning more towards the classic gentlemen range of Breguet more than the sports models. (not as if i can afford one)
Hey poisonous siah. But i do agree with you on the pusher feel on 7750. The best i handled so far is the El primero.
Why i asked cos last sat we saw a used piece at Lucky Plaza and i wasn't sure what caliber used in the watch. For the records, it wasn't me that got poisoned that day
Now u have piqued my interest. An interesting read and more poison for the mysterious vicitm.
Yes sir, that is my understanding. Gonna start a war now....
The highest grade self winding cam operated chrono available on the market imho is the lemania 1350. As you know, the 1350 was rebuilt in the 90's (I think) based on the 1340 which served as the base caliber of automatic speedmaster and seamasters chronos from 197os.
I cannot see myself paying >$3K for watch running on a valjoux 7750/1. (Dun remind me of the Hublot, a moment of weakness) This movement has too many cons in my book: poor power reserve, horrible pushers feel, servicing every 5 years or so, much too common, poor movement finish. Therefore, I rather a 5100 over a 7750 any time. Only saving grace is ease of service other than the schaffhausen themselves
Enough of my rambling......... wat I really am trying to say is that u can't go very far wrong with a Breguet
And just to make u sleepless
Buy buy buy .......

Bro, is the Breguet Type XXI using Lemania 1350 caliber?
