Breguet Type XX Platinum, Salmon.

An old shot of my Type XX Platinum Salmon, gone for a couple of years now, but not forgotten. 



If only it didn't have this date... I would have kept it. 

Best,

Nicolas

That is correct

I mostly prefer watches without a date but if there is one… it doesn’t bother me too much But it is a fact that the big majority prefers to have a date. So if it were my business I would also make what most clients want. My blue dial says hi Not platinum ...  

Another nice one. But there was also this one...

In steel I believe

Right ?

Yes, if only the salmon were dateless like this one. And T Swiss T!

Dates are so hard

This is one of those watches that brightens up your day…

Big mistake to part with it ))

A beauty. Presence of a date should perhaps not be the only criterion of choice

to purchase or part with a watch.

Superb. I never thought this would go

I cannot believe you let this one go.

For me one of the most beautiful Breguet's from the last 20 years. To say it with Greta's words : "How dare you ...."

Oh no, the date really kills this one for me.

I have nothing - absolutely nothing - against a date complication when it is well executed and doesn't look like an afterthought. This is evident on SO many newer watches - everything is fine but then when you move your eyes down to the bottom half of the... 

Love this iteration, mon ami! However . . .

IMHO The white background makes the date window stick out like a sore thumb! I believe a matching date wheel would have maintained a more symmetrical appearance. Then again, that hole in the dial would still annoy you! Merci, mon ami!🥂
