Hands-On: With The Breguet 7077 La Tradition Chronograph Independant
Breguet introduced somewhat of a show-stopper with its new 7077 La Tradition Chronograph this year. The La Tradition line is no stranger to innovation - e.g. the Fusée Tourbillon - but the 7077 Chronograph represents quite a bit of technical innovation. For starters, it essentially contains two movements and a complete separation of timekeeping versus chronograph-ing accuracy. Literally. One balance is always in full swing, while the other springs into higher-frequency action when activating the chronograph. 1 OF 3 The new 7077 Chronograph is almost completely open-worked. Front and center at 12 o'clock is a sub dial with hob-nail pattern guilloche work in the expected Breguet style.

Incoming, a deviation
In an effort to help a friend score his first Rolex I sold him my 216570 Polar��..at something of a deal. So, I decided to pocket a bit and pick up a non-Rolex, whitey. I'm really pretty stoked about this piece. It's really nice. Pay attention to the color variation in the bezel, we will be discussing this later when my BLRO shows up. Thanks all.E-IMG_5403.JPGIMG_5404.JPGIMG_5405.JPG

Influx of Taupe
Have been seeing a lot of Taupe straps around latelyDoes anyone know where to source one like the one in this pic and do you think this colour will work on a 5235G

First Tudor, First Bronze, First Black Bay (BBB)
Lots of firsts with this new one added to my collection. There are so many different variations in the shade of the bronze I am very excited to have this piece and can't wait to see how the patina starts to develop.
