is the least costly. In this case, it's sort of impossible to understand, in terms of dial execution--someone who knew 'nothing' would certainly guess the Breguet would be most costly. But.... These are really different watches in feel and style, however, inside, virtually the same. That fact also went into my decision process. I thought, gee, even at the Speedmaster level, this movement is hailed as one of the best ever, so it really came down to feel and design... Breguet.

Bregeut 5237 "so reasonable?"

 
 By: Mostel : September 30th, 2007-18:32
Hi guys, I've been comparing the VC Malte Chrono, Patek 5070 and Breguet 5237. Breguet is so reasonably priced by comparison to these others that I wondered if there was an actual reason? They all use the Lemania, is that correct? How does the Breguet com...

...but there are important distinctions between the Patek and Vacheron/Breguet versions of the Lemania movement. Here is a quote from a previous post on a similar question about the Vacheron and Patek chronos (I believe the VC and Breguet versions are tec... 

Thanks so much. [nt]

Breguet vs... what?

To get it done with the first - and less important - point: as for technical hair-splitting between 5-figures watches that can't keep time with a $10 China-made quartz, and are mostly made of gold that no matter how well-polished in the factory will be a ...

Thank you for articulating it. I agree with all of your observations and insights. I've beheld many watches under a 25x lupe, I've beheld watches on the 100K range... I've owned Langes and Pateks, etc. But when I looked at the Breguet under a lupe, it was... 

Thought I'd also add

that in wg, as Nice as the watch is, I found its size and feel and looks to be surprisingly versatile, going just fine with my very casual shirt and pants... It wears fairly large and has strong presence, making it contemporary even though it is so true t... 

The Three Lemanias

 
 By: mobeme : October 9th, 2007-11:36
Thanks for the info on this posting. I have also been considering 'The Three' Lemania's PP5070, Breguet 5237 and VC MC and had wondered the same things. I like the classic yet sporty look of the VC MC but am also veering towards the 5237 - I prefer the sm...
