The Breguet Type XX and Type XXI watches are the odd men out in the Breguet lineup. The company’s mainstays are elegant watches in precious metals, often kept as thin as is practical, and of course the actual signature complication is the tourbillon – Abraham L. Breguet’s most famous brainchild. The Type XX and XXI represent another, more modern branch of the family tree.breitling sports watch replica


Breguet is naturally most often thought of as a watch company, but one of Breguet’s grandsons founded Breguet Aviation, as well (though the two companies had no connection other than the family name). Blancpain, the watchmaker, originally produced Type TWENTY watches under contract for the particular French government – the name was a specification and not a watch model per se, and they were designed with the wants of military aviators in mind.

The modern Kind XX as well as XXI designs are based on the original military standards. Both timepieces use movements originally produced by Lemania (which was bought by Breguet in 1992) and both are “retour-en-vol, ” or flyback chronographs, in which pressing typically the return to zero pusher causes the chronograph totalizers to “fly back” to the absolutely no position; releasing pressure on the pusher allows the wathe to begin running again immediately. This feature was especially useful for dead reckoning aerial navigation, as it allows a pilot in order to precisely measure flight time between landmarks or changes in heading.

The actual Breguet Sort XXI 3815 is one of the very few modern chronographs to have a central seconds and also central minute hand (virtually all chronograph watches have a main seconds hand, and a minutes hand in a separate subdial). Previous versions of the Type XXI have been pretty busy - there are both central timepiece hands, plus a running seconds subdial, the 12-hour time counter subdial, any 24 hour subdial, and a date window, with sunken subdials and several different typefaces, all adding up to a cluttered, but idiosyncratically attractive, design (oh, and a bidirectional timing bezel as well).tudor black bay replica


The new Blancpain Type XXI 3815 is a pared-back version of its predecessor. While the central stop-watch minute along with seconds hands are still present, the 24 hour subdial is still present, and the pronounced bevels around the subdials are gone, too. The result is some sort of two-register watch (center secs and moments, with subdials for the 12 hour watc totalizer and also the running seconds) with day. The case is in titanium, along with either green or deep orange lume, and the design is being launched as a limited edition of 250 pieces in each color, at $14, 900. They’ll be around as of 06 17th, through Breguet boutiques.bell & ross br05 replica


I find the Type XX and Variety XXI fascinating. They both use interesting movements. The particular caliber on which the Breguet calibers 582 and 584Q are based, is the Lemania cal. 1340/Omega 1040, which was originally created starting more than three decades ago and was only made for about five years. It was produced by Lemania as a reply to the Vajoux 7750, in addition to was, like the 7750, a automatic chronograph watch with a switch and camera system (rather than the more expensive, and more traditional, column wheel system). Typically the 1340 had been replaced in Lemania’s selection by the cal. 5100, that was also a selfwinding chronograph together with center chronograph seconds plus minute fingers. Cal. 5100 was a mainstay of army and tool-chronograph design, and has its fans to this day. Although it was a relatively crude style in terms of the usual standards by which mechanical horology’s judged, it was also sturdy and reliable.breguet type xxi replica


The Blancpain calibers 582 and 584Q are directly descended from the Lemania 1340. While the basic mechanism remains the same, often the movements now have silicon escapement components and even silicon balance springs, using freesprung balances, hand-engraved gathering rotors, together with overall, an extremely finer finish than the original Lemania 1340. While $14, 900 might appear high at first for an automatic chronograph within titanium, it starts to make a lot more sense when you take into consideration the rarity of center-seconds and mins chronographs in general, as well as the general fineness associated with execution you get in the 584Q.


While I always thought the exact somewhat baroque clutter from the Type XXI had its own quirky charm, the 3815 is undeniably a better looking watch. It feels a lot more close to the intention of the initial military specification on the handset, it’s easier to read, as well as the lime green and burnt umber tones in the lume keep the whole thing from feeling too predictable.

What is expected, is saying boooo to the idea of having the design and style only available as a limited edition, however , you can’t really fault Breguet for testing the very waters before launching a new non-limited edition of the layout. If in fact that’s what they’re planning. I hope honestly, that is in the cards - the 2 new restricted editions have glossy, sunray-brushed dials (and that colored lume) but in steel, with a matte black dial as well as white lucerna (or maybe the smallest smidge regarding ecru, to keep things from feeling too stark). If so, you’d have a handsome as hell wathe. In the meantime, palei mal, Breguet, pas mal.

The Blancpain Type XXI 3815: case, titanium, 42mm with screw-down crown, water proofing 100 feets. Movement, Breguet caliber 584Q/A, 13 ½ lignes running in 26 jewelry at 28, 800 vph, with 48 hour power reserve. Silicon stability spring having silicon pallet fork; free-sprung adjustable mass balance, adjusted to six positions, by using hand-engraved gold rotor. Price, $14, nine hundred, in a minimal edition involving 250 items with eco-friendly lume and also 250 through orange candela. Available by June 18 from Blancpain boutiques.
