Which Watch Next

·Jul 10, 2022

Over polished blue Navi II. Had a good story though…

and this little gem. Would prefer a Top Time, but love it just the same.

I know Omega get a bad rap for releasing too many special and limited editions…… but the more I look into Breitling, Omega looks like amateurs compared to them? A lot of limited editions / branded watches from them.

Hmm... I can see how it looks but keep in mind that, for example, Breitling released updated versions of their production Navitimer and Superocean.
Granted, they both come in all sorts of sizes & colors but all are production pieces.

I could be wrong 🤔 but the only LE so far this year is the Cosmonaute...

I did some more digging - some of the ones I am seeing might be an approved after market mod? Not sure if anyone can fill in some gaps.

Introduced in 1975, as a tool watch expressly designed for military use and commissioned by the Italian Army…

Vintage examples are great looking watches...

I’ve owned two Breitling watches, neither vintage examples: a reference 1461 and reference A19350 Montbrillant Olympus.

oh yeahhhhhhh.

i got introduced to Breitling by my dad's daily wearer for the past >20 years.

and naturally my first costly Swiss watch was The Aerospace Evo which has been long sold

fell endlessly down the rabbit hole with a Top Time and a Premier 765

Great taste! Breitling, along with Chronograph collector and Breitling historian Fred "Watchfred" Mandelbaum did an amazing job with the 806 Re-Edition! A bit hard to find now, but certainly worth a try 👍
