If they could thin out the movement and have a flat crystal it would be perfection.

...the - needed - bulbous crystal... Needed due to the height of the mechanism of chain ensemble, which is needed for constant force... If it was just a little thinner I would start saving now,,, Only on the profile images it can be really shown...

.. once you get used to the bulb crystal you can really love this watch ... but i think i'd prefer the traditional 'La Tradition' anyway ... . Cheers, Filip...

A Beautiful Piece

This watch is surprisingly beautiful and ironically not much more expensive than a normal Breguet tourbillon without the chain and fusee. In a superficial comparison to the Richard Lange Pour le'Merite chain and fusee, this watch's chain seems a bit more ...
But the Swiss are..........

Patrick, You may be right on the observations about the French and Germans but the Swiss are as rough as brick xxxhouses....... So, very in keeping with La Tradition, then. Regards, MTF
Yes indeed!

They span in both directions. The best finishing with the smallest work, to the roughest work.
stunning

Incredible pics of an amazing watch

La Tradition is not one of my favorite Breguets, since the dial is so small, but this tourbillon is killing. Geo
The pictures show amazing details

Thank you : it's a pleasure to discover the details of this great watch. But I would be scared to wear it because of this bulbous and totally unprotected crystal... The wooden box is very original ! Emmanuel
Great photos, thanks very much SJX....

It's really nice to see that the production version of the Tradition Tourbillon is finally out. The first thing I noticed is that somehow the watch appeared to be less thick to me than the prototypes; the doomed crystal seems to be more refined and rounde...
Thanks for a GREAT set of photos...

of an awesome watch. I just hope that Breguet does NOT bastardize this superb specimen by coming up with a WG variant somewhere down the road. This one looks right at home as is, a REAL THOROUGHBRED by Breguet. Thanks for sharing...
One thing I do not like in this watch
By: AlexKutkovoy : June 21st, 2009-12:40
is the winding system bridge. The same feeling, unfortunately for the same bridge in La Tradition watch which I appreciate as one of the best modern wristwatches. My vision is here - that is virtual modification. The style of Breguet's movements of 'Montr...
