Breguet Type XX Aeronavale (Taiwan specific)

Looks like the watches are already making its rounds to the boutiques. I was told that the Breguet Type XX Aeronavale Reference 3803ST, a limited edition watch of 1,000 pieces will retail for NTD 325,000. Not too bad for a limited edition watch. The watch does a double celebration for Breguet, the first, it is the 50th. Anniversary as the Aeronavale watch and also it marks the 100th. Anniversary of the French Aeronavale as a military branch.

The watch.


The beautiful case back with the 1910 - 2010 inscription.

It does look like the Breguet Type XX from the 70s and 80s, as shown below but with a modern twist.

Personally I like the Type XXI (reference 3810ST), but would love it more if the crown was the same as the one on the reference 3803. Maybe one day....
