稼働中

サービスセンターに持ち込んだ時、場合によってはスイスに送る可能性があると言われました。数ヶ月から〜混雑具合によっては１年近くかかる場合もあると言われて、当時考えると言って結局お願いしませんでした。しかしながら、今昨今、セイコーも含めて古い時計は対応出来ない場合が多い中、無期限にオーバーホールやサービスの対応をして頂けるのは貴重かと思います。

パテックやAP、ヴァシュロン、そしてブレゲが真の富裕層からの高い支持があるのは、資産価値を保つことが出来る無期限サービス対応という点もあるかと思います。

因みにフランスの会社ですが、ご存知の通り今はスウォッチグループの一社なので、メインの工房はスイスにあるとの事でした。

Extremely rare Antique Breguet Pocket watch.
"GENUINE and confirmed by Breguet service center"

As any antique Breguet collector knows, it is extremely rare to find a genuine Breguet pocket watch.
I have brought this watch to Breguet Tokyo service center in Ginza many yrs ago to see if they service the item.
Mr. Sato, the technician/watchmaker has told me that yes, it is possible as it is a genuine Breguet, but they may have to send the item to their Swiss service center possibly for a few months, so I decided not to at the time.

He has also commented I can get the archive for this watch for something like 500euro at the time, but I do not know the cost now. He said it will reveal the first purchaser and specs..etc. Also that it will be signed by Emmanuel Breguet who is the CEO and the direct descendent of Abraham Breguet.

It has the special crest gold working on the case which means it was most likely purchased by an aristocrat or some famous figure back then. As you know back in those times Breguet did not sell watches to just anyone, but only to those with high social status or famous artists, musicians..etc only.

I understand that if the archive reveals the person to be of historical importance, the value of the watch goes up significantly, but I just never did. I sort of regret.

It is kind of like a special lottery that comes with this item as if the person whoever purchases this watch will have the chance to reveal who ordered.

I hope someone who understands and appreciates purchases this very special watch.

good luck.
