Hey guys!

I was looking for a Breguet Type XX rep modern or vintage. Do you know who else sells them now, besides puretime, it would be good to have an up to date list here of sellers/models?

Thanks for looking!

kingsr The watch in hand is very disappointing. The stainless steel for the case and bracelet looks to be very low quality. Any of the GF or HF Breitling's look great and match the Gen's in color and polish. The only way I can describe it is the steel looks grayish. I have bought 3 different Breguet watches, all were disappointing.

Thank You very much for the feedback !!

Breguet type XX and XXI are among my favourite watches ever, but it seems not worth buying in rep.

If i may ask, which are the 2 other Breguet reps that you bought ?

I ask you this because i also love the Breguet Classique and Marine, these reps seems to be much more high Quality....or am i wrong ?

I think the classic is the best Breguet I bought but not up to the level I was expecting. The Marine I would say OK and my 4th Breguet is the Breguet Tradition 7057 SF Black Skeleton is OK. Overall I was expecting the quality of GF's watches. All were a disappointment. The XX was the worst. The stainless steel was of such low quality the color is grayish when compared to my Breitling's from GF or the other better factories. If you lower your expectations you will be satisfied. Every time a new Breguet Rep was released I was buying it. I won't be first in line anymore.

Wow, this Type XX is really awesome!

It has a 7750 movement, is correct?
How is the quality?

Does this have the awful "twenty one 27 jevels" typo on the rotor?

I do not wanna open a specific thread, anyway Breguet has just relased the new Type XX Chronographe 2097



It is the first time that Breguet uses Ceramic Bezel, and the Caliber 728 was relqased in 2023 after 4 years in the making...






Honestly speaking, if prefer the old version, it had more personality....it's a shame that Breguet too is following the thread of today, watches are all 'similar'.

I mean, i prefer the old PP Calatrava over the new one, and i prefer A LOT the old Zenith Pilot Typx 20 over the new one....an so on :(


What do you guys think ?

Where to get a good Rep of the Aeronavale or Transatlantique, Type XX/XXI nowadays? Maybe used?

Bump, hoping someone's got one more recently.
Try to ask TDs...i think they are out of stock since the Rep of the Type XXI was made in November 2017


That said, the current Type XX (ref. 2067) is in my opinion less beautiful and more generic/mundane than the previous, and this is a problem beacause IF (and i don't think so ) IF the factories would like to produce Reps, they would Rep the current Ref, the 2067.

Don't wanna open another thread, these are photos of the 'new' Gen Type XX from Breguet

Type 20 Chronographe 2057 (the Military version)

Type XX Chronographe 2067 (the Civilian version)

Type 20 for the 2057 and Type XX for the 2067 are not typos, it is the way Breguet denominates them !

The new caliber is cool, but i still prefer the old legendary Ref. 3800 / 3820 version...
