		If the name in question is Breguet, the expectations and their realization become even more problematic, because what one expects from the company heir to arguably the most illustrious watchmaking tradition in the world is not merely very high quality, but a certain expression of quality- in short, an embodiment of a philosophy.
		The star of the collection is of course the Breguet fountain pen, which, like the other two pieces in the collection (a rollerball, and a convertible ballpoint/fountain pen) seems deliberately calculated to make a statement about Breguet's relationship to quality in general, and to their own design heritage in particular.
		Breguet deserves credit also for casting the clip from solid silver, rather than stamped and rolled sheet metal, as is the case on many of even the highest quality modern fountain pens.

	The Breguet Legacy - Part 2 [2/18/03] - TimeZone
		The watches sold by AL Breguet and his immediate descendants can be divided roughly into two basic categories: Those made by AL Breguet himself and his assistants in Paris; and those purchased from other makers and sold with the Breguet signature.
		While it is an important part of the aesthetic created by AL Breguet (1786), it overlooks the earlier invention of his Arabic numerals (1783) featured on a white enamel dial as shown here, and his occasional use of the classic Roman numerals on white enamel.
		Lacking any historical or philosophical connection to AL Breguet, they are primarily undermined by their watchmaking: The lack of form movements in the former, and the lack of a column wheel calibre in the latter.

	The Breguet Alize & Fairey Gannet
		The French Breguet Type 1050 "Alize (Tradewind)" provided over 40 years of service to the French Navy's air arm, the Aeronavale, and the type was also used for over two decades by the Indian Navy.
		Some sources say that there were five preproduction prototypes, which may mean some of the prototypes were brought up to production standard and passed on to the Aeronavale; and that India acquired 17 examples, which hints that they bought five used aircraft from the Aeronavale.
		The Fairey 17 suffered from some handling problems, but these were corrected with a few aerodynamic modifications, and carrier deck trials began in the spring of 1950, with the Fairey 17 performing the first landing of a turboprop aircraft on a carrier, the HMS ILLUSTRIOUS, on 19 June 1950.
