Great read. While I'm not much into the "high horology" reps, I have to agree about Breguet (as a brand).

In my eyes, it's the top watch brand in the world, even more legendary and prestigious than Patek... and Transatlantique Type XX is my dream watch... and not even completely "out of reach" for an average guy like me.

Did you know that Breguet started by designing watches for people like Napoleon, Louis XVI (king) and Marie Antoinette, the queen of France? They also invented tourbillon. Very impressive watches, though I'm not personally too fond of all their extra simplistic "dressy" models.

Thanks for this composition, it was entertaining read. This kind of posts keep the community "rolling"!
