Breguet Type XX Steel, LE Pieces, circa 2010.
A tad, just a tad bigger than the 3800, this Type XX Aeronavale is 40 mm big.
The dial is very nice, the crown with its special shape is attractive, and the case back tells the story.
This is the last Type XX I like.
Before we'll get a new one which will match with our dreams...
Best,
Nicolas
I think the black bezel give it more of a tool watch appearance and makes it more discrete on the wrist.
It's the modern one I like best too.
I've had it for a long time already. Nice pictures you posted!
Skilful use of (many) flat surfaces and of the 'colour' silver. A distinctively individual yet cleverly related piece. Breguet's design team is very good.
I'm a little conflicted on the bezel but would happily go with it to ditch the date! 40mm instead of 39? Sure, why not.
This and the JLC deepsea
Are probably my two favorite waterproof chronographs. The fifty fathoms comes in third due to it's thickness.
I like thisreference too, however I prefer the hands of my XX Transatlantic (unpainted)
