Just went in to my AD to pick up my Breitling cap (finally) and have another drool over the two tone Havana Legende that is now in stock and the AD gave me the Bucherer catalogue.

Don't know much about these watches, anyone have any experience - they had some Patravi TravelTec GMTs in stock (including the rose gold) and they are nice looking pieces.

Strange you would mension that, I did see them for the first time the other day along side a new company called Kobold. They arent bad but the Kobold were really sweet! Great build and calssic yet fresh designs, great! Too bad the prices were way up there, more expensive than their Rolex counterparts.

They are well made and beautiful watches but not in the same venue as breitlilng. they are more oriented toward the dress watch than the sport watch. the company has been family owned the entire history (since around the early 1900's) and is presently owned and run by the great or great great grandson of the founder. Was a mainly jewlry busines at first with the founder getting into fabrication. For awhile they were fabricators for some things in Rolex. Now just thier own stuff. Very nice watches and I love the one I have, but they are on the high end.
Cheers
