Breguet

On a recent business trip to New York, I was having dinner with a client and we started talking about watches. I've known him for over 15 years and we've become close friends. He was wearing a Rolex Datejust that he received from his parents many years ag...  

I see this model pop up occasionally. It's really stunning and your photos capture the many details. Thank you.

Hi ingmar, thanks for the compliments. Which version of the La Tradition do you like most? Regards, ED-209

Definitely my favourite Breguet from the current collection. As for knowing if we ever helped a friend, WIS or not, in the Watch decision, well, I would answer that this is also one of the many goals of this forum! :) Best, Ed. Nicolas.

- as per the last Q, about another Purist and friendly helping.. Yes, I've been helped, advised but also encouraged & stimulated by very good friends, here.. - For some pieces, they not only have been kind advisers but "knowledgeable witnesses " of the sl... 

Thank hs, that's what I really like about our PuristSPro community, lots of help and sharing of great information. Thanks for reading this post. Regards, ED-209

Hi Nicolas, I'm sure there's many PuristS who have received excellent advice from you on JLC and other brands :) . It's rewarding to hear about how much my friend is enjoying his watch and to share in spreading the passion for our timepieces. Regards, ED-...

Encouraging new members to join in and participate in the fun. And I'm happy to hear that his wife is building an interest in watches too :) Regards, ED-209

Sharing the passion of this hobby with others is IMO what ThePurists is all about. Your client is lucky to have a friend such as you. Cheers, John

You're right, it's sharing of the passion that makes our community such a great experience. Thanks for reading this post. Regards, ED-209

Thanks for reading DRMW. Regards, ED-209

Nice size, superb yellow gold color true to the original yellow gold with a very warm rose gold look. Great pics from you! Help us congratulate your friend and I hope he will join us on PuristSPro too! Cheers Robin

IMHO! Congrats to your friend. I have found it particularly joyful to help someone else find the watch of their dreams. Sounds like you did, too. Best, CaliforniaJed ...  

Great pic of your La Tradition! Regards, ED-209

I have a friend who jumped into a Cartier and Rolex as soon as he began work with a high end company. Nice brands of course, but he got them for their names. Now he has become increasingly interested in my "lesser known" brand watches (even my Carl F. Buc... 

Cool, very nice of you to help educate your friend and share an interest and passion in watches. Regards, ED-209
