Breguet Marine Big Date switched back to the bracelet

I got this beautiful watch 8 months ago and switched it to a leather strap after the first day off ownership. So when I started to switch out straps between watches the other day I figured I'd try the Marine again on the bracelet. Since you don't see many of these on a bracelet I thought I would share some photos.

Before I get into pictures of the bracelet I want to thank Breguet for helping me replace the outer box. I bought this watch overseas and when it was shipped, customs opened the shipping box to see what was inside. Well they never put the watch box back into the shipping box, instead they wrapped up the outer back and sent it along its way. This was the result when I opened the box.

They even wrote my apartment number on it!

This is how it should look, thanks to Damien and Santia at Breguet for you help.

I have to say that the presentation is outstanding.

Here are a bunch of bracelet shots, they should give you a good idea of how the watch is going to look. I still prefer it on the leather strap but I think I'm going to wear this way for a little while as it feels like a brand new watch!

Here is how it looks on a leather strap if you haven't seen these pictures before.

Hi Tony, Thanks for the images. As you say, we don’t get to see the Marine on bracelet too often and it’s an interesting change to make and a nice ‘option’ to have. One thing that struck me from your comparison images on leather and metal was how it chang...
