Two Vintage Breguet Pocketwatches Added to the Brand’s Collection of Historic Timepieces
Montres Breguet added to its private collection of historically significant watches, when brand president and CEO Marc A. Hayek acquired two important lots at a Christie’s Geneva auction last year: the Breguet no. 4039, a half-quarter repeating watch with an off-centered hour dial and date indication, and the extremely rare Breguet Tourbillon no. 1176.The first watch, the Breguet no. 4039, was originally sold to the Duke of Berwick on September 30, 1825, and went for a final auction price of? 70,000 Swiss francs at Christie’s. It is a remarkable example of one of Abraham-Louis Breguet’s extra-slim repeating timepieces made “sur les principles des chronom��tres” (on the principles of chronometers). The Breguet No. 4039 has a case made of 18K gold and is outfitted with the “Caliber 21”'” movement, with an additional complication for the date indication (in a window at 6 o’clock). It has an engine-turned silver dial with Roman numerals

15451ST.ZZ.1256ST.01 vs. 15451ST.ZZ.1256ST.02
Good day GentsI am considering a purchase that id quite frankly like to understand a bit more before pulling the trigger, the following RO models are my options:15451ST.ZZ.1256ST.01 - Black Dial, Diamond Bezel15451ST.ZZ.1256ST.02 - Grey Dial, Diamond BezelKindly let me know if the Grey Dial is a superior product, i am told it is more rare and difficult to source, whilst the black dial is more readily available. Theres a price difference of approx. 23%; although i do like the black dial on the wrist, i want to be sure its the most sensible decision.

Chronomat on its way out
I hear the former flagship watch, the Chronomat is being discontinued along with possibly the Super Avenger. They are pushing the in house movements which is fine but the new watch designs are pretty ugly in my opinion. I have no idea what Breitling are doing anymore.

Patek 5575 Auction Prices
See the prices are slowly coming down. Sotheby's auction at the price at around $130 000 including buyers premium in April 2015 and Aniquorum just sold in December for just under $100 000. Not sure what the sellers premiums are but I guess the sellers would clear around $72 000. That's roughly a 50% flip! Come on PP make us a non 175 Anniversary in 5575 so us mere mortals have a chance of wearing one!
