New Breguet coming in April

[stoyania]

Probably 8 considering the smaller bridge size and Some minor details.
However it has it’s merits and it seems to run reliable the past 2 weeks.
The guiloche dial is replicated to perfection, hands are perfect too.
The one i would really want is a rosé gold with silver dial and blueed screws, hope that ever comes out!!

rlxsub thanks mate! so looks like the strap and some minor details prevent it from being a super-rep. i will visit a store and try the gen first just to see how it feels on my small(er) wrist

The strap is unwearable but the item is precious, other than minor flaws it is a replica work of art.

Puretime had listed genuine croc straps for this model a while back. Not sure if they are still in stock and if other TDs have access to them.

Try the vietnamese strapmakers, you cant go wrong for this

Has anyone successfully changed their straps? Need some guidance before I do further damage to the lug screws! I may be wrong, but it doesn’t appear they used springbars....

There are two screws on two adjacent ends of the lugs. Neither would budge, which makes me wonder if they are faux.

I assumed you had to unscrew the bottom screw before being able to push out or unscrew the main screw. Can anyone who managed to swap the strap confirm?

Well an update regarding the stability of the rep, a couple days ago i felt some stiff resistance while winding, pulling the crown to set time i managed to snap the crown clear off.
Seems the stem is tempered like glass... I asked Toro for a replacement but i'm not getting response yet.

I replaced the strap, you need to unscrew the bottom screw first, then the long one on the side.

I had the same problem with my breguet. Just loosen off the grub screw under the lug and the retaining bar will slide out. Not sure why they have screw slots on them, really condfused me!

I’m just waiting see how the unusual movement holds up to considerable use.

what a beautiful watch. My main concern is yours as well. Lets hope these movements prove themselves in the following years.

As per Hyjynx comment as to the weight. Do we know if the weight is the same as gen?

Gen only exists in gold (white or rose) so it is for sure heavier.

Doud do you think it’s significant? If it’s close and I won’t notice then it’s fine. I just don’t like the feeling of those cheap light as air replicas.

That works, Thanks.

Good news, Mine (rose gold style with stainless dial) is 68g with the stock strap. Doesn't feel lightweight, but probably does not have the density of 750 gold.
