Welcome! Blue or black dial?
Thank you Sir.
It's blue dial. Not as blue as jf 15400.
But it's still amazing

Took my first dive into the glamorous world of tourbys with Lucy (@truetime168). Got the cheapest Breguet one, it's keeping terrific time:

Was working and suddenly noticed that the conditions were ripe for a great wristshot[emoji16]

Welcome to the club, guys! Remember, tourbies are social butterflies- the more, the merrier. So start saving up for your next one. Oh, there will be a next one, believe me! [emoji1]

Thanks for the tips mate :)

I am currently looking for a HBB tourby. But do you have any other suggestion for my 2nd tourby?

Cheers

The HBB skeleton tourby is a must-have in my opinion. Some will argue that it's a fantasy, but I dare them to say if they've ever run into anyone wearing a tourbillon, talk less of knowing how it's pronounced. [emoji12] If you prefer "cosmetically closest to gen", the AP tourby (blue) can't be beat.

When you get questions about the watch as you inevitably do, how do you pronounce tourbillon? Because saying it the correct way in my head and then saying it out loud are two different things. Saying it with the proper accent just makes me think one would sound douchey.

It's pronounced "tour-be-yon", not "tour-be-lon". No need to affect a French accent.

Here are some more closeups of the IWC Tourby. I'm actually liking this more than the VC now. LOL

The sunburst dial and tourby combination is a killer. Mesmerizing.

@peterpl great watch collection you have there. Wear it with health

Thanks mate. I'll start a thread this weekend if u'm free to showcase my current collection. About 50 watches at its current standing.
[MENTION=69907]jai04[/MENTION] -- yeah I plan to. Thats my next tourby. This IWC makes it my 3rd tourby now. So the VC Malte and probably Hublot Skeleton and thats it. There are no Breguets or other designs I like for tourby's.

I'm going to be wearing the AP GP tomorrow though. Now thats a killer AP as well.

Damn right! Sexiest watch I got... Lots of head turns and "holy shits"

That's what I'm talking about! Be careful now - that kind of effect it has on folks can go to your head! [emoji1][emoji106]

Been eyeing that vc malte tourby too, I'm just hesitant that might wear too big for me, but that looks really nice. The breguet auto tourby with power reserve is the first tourby I really want. I just can't get over the wrong hands.
