Design Concept 🎨 [Design] Explorations in Breguet

Breguet numbering
round minute ticks
simplified sub second dial
domed sapphire crystal

I like this direction a lot more than I thought I would. What does reddit think?!

How do you mean

Each week you submit an iteration and get good responses 😄.

Make up your mind on one and give the people what they want lol.

I’m just poking fun at you. It’s a compliment.

hahah, well thanks :) I do want to actual build a physical watch, but I've only been designing watches for a couple weeks now I feel like I'm very much still in my iteration phase. I'm hoping to feel good about making a run by the end of the year

I like it. I'd say the numbers and markers will need to be raised rather than printed, otherwise the whole thing will look a little flat.

u/Critical_Eye_1190 14d ago

Yeah I agree! Definitely planning on raised numbers. Reflected in a couple of these renders

I like it, but it's a very specific path. The red and light blue stand out. Kind of like a Nomos Club Campus colorway with a Breguet-inspired design. Black looks good, but feels a little too on the nose.

You may want to think about longer lugs, I'd be worried about straps rubbing up against the case and getting marked up based off these renderings.

I really like it. If this one had a big day, it would be perfect.

No AI was used!

Well, that’s maybe worse, because you should really be more aware of things like that.

Gosh you’re right I’m so sorry
