Breguet 7057 stopped working - guide to fixing

[Stuvetjee]

Its possible but balls to trying that by hand! I think cnc is essential and it would be bloody hard to hold it. Maybe a custom jig would be needed to hold it via the center 5 cut out portions or something? You would have to do the lower wheel too to match it up. Its a big risky task!

i suppose so, watch is gorgeous. This thing looks amazing and i disagree with people saying this thing is miles away from gen.

Yes it is you’re right, but there are several similar Breguet models so the position of the bridges, for example, is only glaring if you know the 7057 well.

I tried on a 2635 a little while ago. Very little difference in quality considering the £20k price tag difference

I once made a comparison of the dial in one thread here, I found more than 20 differences in the dial. It is more homage than a replica. Still lovely though.
The only good (not perfect but good) breguet replica IMO is the 5177. I hope it will change some day.

Yep, as I said if you know that particular model inside out then these minute details stand out. They are impossible to fix due to the movement, however Breguet have several other watches, such as the 2635, that are quite similar, with different screw and bridge positions. To me, everything you pointed out apart from the balance wheel is less of a tell than, for example, the rolex lettering on the dial of a noob 116500, because rolex use consistent fonts on that model. Just my views - like you say, it's arguably more of a homage model, but still one of my faves, and if anyone knows the 7057 inside out then hats off to them because I'd never be able to remember any of those bridge positions unless I had it on my wrist!

Whilst I appreciate the screws may either not need to be there, be in the wrong place etc etc i just dont care. I honestly think if you walked into a breguet shop with one the last thing they would do is start analysing your watch to that degree. They would probably be happy you have one of their watches and assume its real, because it doesnt look or feel cheap and shit. Just my thoughts though, as long as its a great looking watch i couldnt care less if its not accurate. But then i like roger dubuis and that will never be accurate as a rep or affordable as a gen!

how many times do you wind the watch before it starts?

Fair point, specifically i like the skeletonised roger dubuis watches but its a nice watch man enjoy it! Have you seen the new big date tourby that dadag13 posted about? Shit date font but nice watch.

Im with you on this. There are a couple of screws in different places, its not white gold and the balance wheel is different (but thats moving). Other than that at 0.25% of the rrp im happy haha

Hi, I'm interested to buy this watch and just want to ask you if the power reserve indicator work on this watch. Thanks
