In the navy

Designed for reliability, they achieve their elegance through the modern application ofBreguet traditional aesthetic values.The tough steel case has protected crown and increased water – resistance. It holds a gold dial that is silvered or blued, and engine – turned in the centre with a fine wave pattern.Although I have lots of respect for Brequet (here is a boring story about the brand), I never put one on my long-term “want” list, where the Royal Oak Jumbo and Rolex Day-Date (ref.18239) still fight for a first place. Brequet is too classic, and the XX-models are also not what I am looking for in a watch. Anyway, I just read at Europastar that Brequet introduces their new Marine watch, the “Marine 5817″.Here is what’s up:The latest MARINE 5817 automatic introduces a new movement, a bigger case, a rubber strap and a redesigned dial to Breguet popularsports model.The Marine watches trace their ancestry to the chronometers A. -L. Breguet made for the French royal navy from 1815.
