Here’s my 769, an older photo as it is currently in Pennsylvania receiving a complete service (with a seven month backlog!):
Some of the older 60s navi's are amazing, i've always lusted over them. I think every vintage chrono collector needs a breitling of some description!
Love them, great thread! 806 from 1964. I don't understand why they don't get more attention in the collector community.
I went through a Breitling phase long ago, but that passed. Then a Rolex phase, which passed when prices got nutty. Now I'm in an Omega phase.
I've had some renewed enthusiasm for my 816 of late, thinking it goes well with retro-mood driving, (even though it's by far the least legible watch I own!) There's not much scope for driving itself of course just now, but nothing/no one can invoke regulations to stop us having an ogle at our favourite watches, and it does all help to pass the time.
