Whether you own a luxury watch or not, you have probably wondered at least once, "Which model is popular?" While everyone has their own motivations, such as "I want a popular classic model!" or "I want a model that no one else has!" , it is difficult to know which models are actually popular unless you get real-time information.
So this time, we will be revealing the top 5 Breguet models handled by Commit Ginza (hereinafter referred to as our store) in the first half of 2024! Please enjoy reading the list while imagining the rankings together with us.
5th Place
『Type XXI』
"Ref.3817BR/Z2/3ZU "
In fifth place is the Type XXI "Ref. 3817BR/Z2/3ZU", which was released in 2018 with a worldwide limited edition of 111 pieces .
This pilot watch was developed for the French Navy's air force in 1955 at their request, and is the successor to the Type XX. The contrast between the 42mm 18KRG (rose gold) case and the gray dial creates a gorgeous impression. The movement is the Cal. 584Q/2, which is equipped with a chronograph with a flyback function, but unlike the regular Type XXI, the back cover is a see-through case back, so you can see the intricate movement that you have never seen before. This is a watch that we highly recommend to anyone who wants to decorate their wrist with a gorgeous look.
4th place
"Classic"
"Ref.5177BR/12/9V6 "
Coming in fourth place is the elegant and classic `` Classic '' Ref.5177BR/12/9V6 .
This watch, which has a refreshing contrast between the 18KRG (rose gold) case and the hand-engraved silver dial with guilloche pattern, is equipped with the in-house automatic movement "Cal.777Q" that uses a silicon escape wheel and anchor, and has a power reserve of about 55 hours, providing sufficient functionality for everyday use. The case diameter is 38mm, which is just the right size for Japanese wrists, so if you are interested, why not try wearing it and experience this beautiful design and high practicality for yourself?
3rd Place
"Marine II Large Date"
"Ref.5817ST/Y2/SV0 "
Coming in third place is the Marine II Large Date "Ref. 5817ST/Y2/SV0" with its eye-catching blue and silver two-tone dial.
This watch has a rugged and sporty look, but also has an elegant feel, with guilloche engraving, Breguet hands, and coin edges on the side of the case, giving it a Breguet feel. It also features a big date, making it practical. The movement, Cal. 517GG, boasts a power reserve of approximately 65 hours and undeniable performance, making it a great choice for those who want to use it both on and off the job.
2nd Place
"Marine II" "Ref.5817BR/Z2/5V8 "
Coming in second place is the Marine II "Ref. 5817BR/Z2/5V8," which is packed with many attractive features, such as Breguet's unique hands and indexes, guilloche dial, and coin edge decoration on the side of the case.
While firmly inheriting the traditional elements of the brand, this watch is popular with people of all ages and genders for its large, thick, modern case design and sporty impression with the rubber strap. The movement is the high-beat "Cal.517GG" with 28,800 vibrations per hour, making it an outstanding model in terms of functionality. Although it is a highly waterproof sports model, it is an attractive watch that exudes a dressy and elegant atmosphere.
1st Place
"Type XX Aeronavale" "Ref.3807ST/J2/SW9 "
Taking the honorable first place is the Type XX Aeronavale "Ref. 3807ST/J2/SW9", which was released in 1999 as a limited edition model of 1,000 pieces worldwide.
The rugged SS (stainless steel) case and the vivid blue dial create a design that exudes a sporty yet classic atmosphere. In terms of functionality, it also boasts impeccable performance, such as the automatic chronograph movement "Cal. 582" with a flyback function and a power reserve of about 48 hours. In addition, the 39mm case size is relatively comfortable for Japanese people, so it can be used both on and off the job, and is a watch that we would definitely recommend to everyone.
summary
What did you think.
While one would think that the Marine collection, which is no exaggeration to say is Breguet's iconic watch, would dominate the top spots, the simple and beautiful Classique has made the list. In addition to the popularity of sporty models in recent years, I think this is the result of a certain demand for Breguet's classical models.
Just wearing a Breguet watch gives us a different kind of prestige than other brands. This is a great opportunity to see the Breguet watch for yourself.
