BREGUET Type 20 Chronographe 2057 & BREGUET Type XX Chronographe 2067. The saga continues!

#breguet #aeroplane #airforce ‪@MontresBreguet‬
The year 2023 brings a new BREGUET Type 20 and BREGUET Type XX. This is a new generation of chronographs powered by an all-new calibre. Four years of preparation preceded the arrival of the new generation of iconic Type 20 and Type XX watches, this time, issued in two versions to meet all expectations: one military-inspired (Type 20) and the other drawing on the finest civilian models (Type XX). Taking cues from the first-generation models, Breguet has instilled a contemporary, dynamic and technological spirit into these watches. The Type 20 and Type XX saga clearly shows no sign of petering out!
The new Calibre 728
After four years of development at the Manufacture Breguet, the brand is delighted to present the new self- winding Calibre 728 for the civilian version and Calibre 7281 for the military version. Combining robustness and innovation, this movement and its variant are protected by several patents. It incorporates all the designs of a modern chronograph such as a column wheel, vertical clutch, 5 Hz frequency as well as an innovative zero-resetting activation system. Alongside these elements, it also benefits from the latest technical innovations in the field of chronometry (precision timing). The balance-spring, the escape-wheel and the pallet-lever horns are made of silicon. In addition to being resistant to corrosion and wear, silicon is insensitive to the influence of magnetic fields and improves the accuracy of the timepiece. Moreover, this self-winding chronograph has a 60-hour power reserve. Both models are equipped with a “flyback”. This function is a precious asset for pilots, replacing the three operations previously required with just one. Different times and directions that require evaluation are easily handled using the “flyback” function. These innovative activation and zero- resetting systems have been designed for crisp and accurate use. Whatever function is performed, the pressure felt on the pushers will be even and balanced. The same applies to the vertical clutch mechanism, which has been adopted for the accuracy of its activation. The chronograph hand thus starts instantly without any initial jerks. To make the movement robust and guarantee its precision even in case of potential impacts, a cross-through bridge was chosen to secure the balance in place. Sized in such a way as to occupy a maximum of the available space within the movement, the barrel - the energy source - is equipped with a spring whose high-energy-density material enables a longer power reserve. Finally, this new movement’s other asset lies in its aesthetics, as significant work has been done on its decoration. In addition to the sunburst pattern, snailing, bevelling, circular-graining and other visible decorations on the components, Breguet has treated the column wheel to a black DLC treatment that heightens visual contrast while improving tribological properties. The sapphire crystal caseback provides a chance to admire the details of the movement, including its blackened oscillating weight shaped like an aircraft wing and engraved with the Breguet logo.

Beautiful watches. The new movement looks sharp and has excellent specifications. I am quite relaxed about date windows. Some are religiously opposed to them, in all cases. Others will claim (genuinely) that they don't mind them, depending on the execution. Others will (disingenuously) claim that the execution of the window is the problem, not the presence of the window itself, but really they just use that as an excuse to criticise a watch they simply don't like, cannot justify spending on, or perhaps cannot afford at all (i.e. they were never in the market for the watch in the first place). I have to admit, this date window execution is one of my least favourite, but I just don't think it ruins the watch. It's still absolutely stunning. Perhaps a future no-date release will please those who genuinely like the watch but just wish it had a cleaner dial. Tastes can be very different! Thank you for bringing another great video for us Alexander. 🙂

[@haraldkrau5326]

Great review! I would like to point out that the 15-minute counter of the XX (2067) is a REAL 15-minute counter. This is in contrast to the predecessor (Ref. 3800). Both the 3800 and the new 2067 have the same minute counting dial layout. However, the minute counting hand on the 3800 performs one full rotation in 30 minutes, not 15 minutes. This also means that the 2057 and the 2067 have different gear ratios on the minute counter. You could have dropped a few words on this interesting little detail. P.S.: The 15-minute counter on the 2067 is the reason why the hour counter has four minor ticks.

The new Breguet XX watches are beautiful, but there are mixed opinions. Some feel the original size would be more suitable, and the date window's new position is unfortunate. The price is also significantly higher, causing some hesitation among buyers. Despite the controversy, the watches still showcase Breguet's craftsmanship and elegance. Personal preferences will ultimately determine their appeal

[@WatchAdvisor]

Tastes are different… that’s all… all Breguet watches are exceptional and unique…

[@thomashrubecky1663]

They are both nice pieces but I like the Type 20 as it's just a little bit easier to read. I'm surprised the mil-spec doesn't get the bezel with the hour gradient but I love the milled coin edge. And speaking of love… I love the slight hint of birdsong in the video! It's charming.

[@boeing700]

Excellent review Alexander! I just ran into your video about this beautiful piece. To my eyes, Breguet made an almost perfect aviation/traveler’s watch. The civilian version has a couple of very useful functions that would benefit me as a constant traveler. Easily being able to track a second time zone with the outer bezel, counting down time to events, and even timing things with the chronograph. Furthermore, with a 100 meter water resistance, it appears to be a watch that can take some “real world” abuse! The only things I wish they would have added; white gold to the Roman numerals and hands, and a folding clasp. Other than that, they’ve hit the mark..

[@steveshap1]

As always, the video on the watches is great. However, the watches themselves are lacking in some major areas. Besides the obvious criticism of the date window, they're also far too big and thick, the cut off numerals are not necessary (and accentuated by the date window), and the price is much too high in light of the minimum decoration of the movement (one of the primary reasons to by a high horology brand like Breguet) and lack of the signature coin edging on the case. The apparently now discontinued Type XXI models, particularly the 3187 are a much better package and value. Hopefully subsequent models in the new line will address these issues (and the Swatch Group starts providing Breguet and Blancpain with the marketing and support they deserve which may justify the increased prices). Until then, I'd rather purchase a Longine Avigation Big Eye for a fraction of the price, and use the balance towards a Breguet Classique or Tradition.

[@WatchAdvisor]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us and your kind feedback! The new XX/20 chronographs are now loyal to the original design … I personally find that great and I can’t wait to see what is next… the fact though that many here, including you, compare Breguet with Longines tells us that Breguet should do some real efforts to communicate how GOOD and unique these watches are…

[@steveshap1]

@@WatchAdvisor Watch has terribly neglected marketing and support for both Breguet and Blancpain. With respect to the new Type XX's, if they were really loyal to the original design, they'd be much smaller, thinner and cheaper. Breguet is charging high horology prices, but the finishing is bare and Breguet just doesn't have the level of cache it used to and the Type XX was never really a high horology watch. I believe Breguet mostly balanced things properly in the now discontinued Type XXI. I hope you're right that there two models are just the start of a wider and more diverse line, and Breguet takes the comments of enthusiasts as constructive criticism. In any event, keep up the good work and I look forward to future videos.

[@jameshoward9700]

Fantastic presentation Alexander! You've really made the watch come alive and it is very valuable to have your insider info that a no date may be inbound..! I've been looking forward to these for years, but I'll need to see them in the metal to judge the size, date success and lume colour. But Breguet have certainly include some remarkable features and I think an all new, ground-up, auto, waterproof flyback was beyond anyone's expectations. I wonder where this leaves Blancpain's Air Command? That seems to have stalled while this project rolled on.. and on! I'd love to see some new Air Commands also - a really tough choice between the two.

[@WatchAdvisor]

The dial design was given through the vintage pieces… IMHO the designer could only fit it in as it is…

[@artgreen6915]

The military version can be a 12 hour timer by moving the bezel bug to the starting position of the hour hand. It's then easy to infer how many half hours have elapsed. Unfortunately, while the civilian version is fine, the military minute timer becomes an estimate in the dark. I think I prefer the military one's cleaner dial and simpler hands overall, but it would be a nice choice to have.

And you should also let us know who you really are, explain your background etc. … actually you are hiding your identity behind “emir4444” and it is pretty boring not to know whom you are talking to/exchanging thoughts with here…

@@WatchAdvisor You are exchanging thoughts with a humble collector who loves Breguet the brand and wants it to do better. May I ask who am I sharing my thoughts with? Are you an independent journalist or a spokesperson for Breguet? You defend the brand blindly when for someone who has a pair of functioning eyes can see how downhill this brand and its products have gone. Design has gotten worse, finishing has gotten worse, price has increased. They have lost their prestige and constantly lost in marketshare to rivals. Numbers speak for themselves. Once the greatest brand in the world, is now not even top 20 among swiss watch manufacturers. You are not doing them any favours by defending them, and certainly you are not doing any favours to you independent journalist reputation.

On the Breguet website these two have steel bracelets - I prefer the steel bracelet.

[@WatchAdvisor]

Good choice… for you… tastes are different… I would prefer a nice color matching fabric strap…

I don’t like bracelets… 🤷🏼‍♂️

Nato strap is the most obnoxious, ugly thing I whole horology. Never could understand what's the appeal of this horror.

Breguet wants 20k for a non precious metal watch - geez who do they think they are Rolex lol 😂

[@WatchAdvisor]

What a meaningless comment! 🤦🏼‍♂️ Learn history and to understand who really is who in watchmaking…

[@20thcenturyboy85]

Yes. If one learns about these watches and the brand, they are so much better and also much more exclusive than the more mass produced great Rolex.

Type XXI (3817ST) still a better watch, especially at current pre-owned price. Gold rotor, nicer dial, coin edge case.

[@WatchAdvisor]

Tastes are different… I think the contrary is true … the new ones just stand out… are simply perfect… once the no-date version will come to the markets there will be long waiting lists ….

movement is totally different mate...this is a 10hz flyback with over 5 patents and 60 hour power reserve, vertical clutch. Not the lemania based "haphazard" flyback that broke all the time.
