Tradition GMT
Breguet first introduced the 7027 Tradition in 2005, it was the first of its wristwatches to reveal the movement mechanics on the dial side of the mainplate. The Tradition has since become a signature piece within the brand. Now, at the last Baselworld 2012, they have introduced a new GMT version.
The new Tradition 7067 GMT keeps the aesthetics of the original model, but now has a single button operated second timezone function. The home time (current timezone) is displayed at 12 o'clock, with the reference time (2nd timezone) being displayed at 8 o'clock. The reference time also features a useful day/night indicator at 10 o'clock which allows you to quickly see if it is day or night at your reference timezone.
The additional functionality of the 7067 Tradition is very useful, but it would be pointless if it takes away from from the aesthetics. True to the original, the anthracite balance-wheel sits in plain view at 4 o'clock, allowing the wearer and any onlookers to see the heart of the watch as it oscillates at a frequency of 3Hz (or 21,600 vph).
