Title: Breguet Type XXII
Post by: TheHobbit on April 24, 2011, 08:57:57 AM

Emmm all seems quiet on both the Eastern and Western front. Anyway, it seems there are 2 versions of the new Breguet Type XXII. Which do you guys and gals prefer? The difference seems to be the second version does not have the 0/30/60 window at the 12 o'clock position. Wonder how to tell if the hands are on the first or second sweep.

The first version.

Prefer the 2nd version but it is a mystery to me how to the 1st run from the 2nd run for the chrono second hand

the 2nd version but i guess the design is detracting frm the tool aviator watch that it was meant to be.  :Blue:

Agreed hence that is why I got the XX (with date).
