Breguet La Tradition Fusee Tourbillon

[Orex]

Hello,

I am new to this forum. Please be nice with me.

Breguet La Tradition Fusee Tourbillon - I am hooked on this watch since some time.

I have seen replicas on some sites:

http://www.best-replicas-watches.co...usee-Tourbillon-Mens-Watch-7047BA.11.9ZU.html

Does anyone has some experience with this watch? Can you comment if the fusee and/or the tourbillon is functional?

Thank you

definitely a gorgeous watch!

but those sites you listed are showing gen pics....don't get your hopes up

Those sites you listed are prime examples of why we stick to our trusted dealers on this site.

What ianGP said.. if you order from those sites, expect to get a piece of crap in a brown box at your doorstep.. this is even more the case with "tourbillon" watches I'd say.

@OP - from my experience, I think a point to note is that, for most models from the higher-end luxury brands (Breguet, JLC, Patek, etc), whatever they are trying to pass off as replicas of the original will be wayyyyyyy inaccurate compared to gen - there will always be obvious tells. This is especially so with dress watch designs - and even MORE so with dress watches which are skeleton/ displayed movement/ tourbillon types.

I really doubt there's a good rep of the Breguet in your picture - those that I've seen are poor copies. And while it is possible that there are reps of this with actual tourbillon movement, it'll be a Chinese tourbillon movement, and you'd know straight away from looking at it that it's one of the Chinese tourbillon movements used by rep factories (designs are quite distinctive).

Thank you. This makes sense. I guess for a fusee watch for my collection I have to find a proper vintage pocket at a reasonable price

Has anyone seen this watch via any of the TD's? I am searching but struggling to find this or a similar model.

That is nice, but no rep of that one..

But I like mine...

That's a beauty, Wingnut. I thought you'd sold it.

unfortunally there is no very good or great breguet replica....
excpet maybe for type XX.

i never understood why they dont try to make at least one good one of a basic only - time watch, with closed back.

Is there any dealer or anyone anybody knows of that sells a decent rep of this?
