Breitling?

I don't know why, PatrickJ, but I am not a big Breitling fan. Sometimes I feel as though they are a brand that tries too hard for a connection and just ends up selling "aviation romance" especially by using John Travolta as its ambassador. I believe in the UK RAF graduates are still given Omegas. I hope that's true. 😀

Best wishes for the new year everyone.

...In case of emergency on a pilotless aircraft, I think I might just sit tight and pray for a miracle!

Important safety tip: Don't forget to deploy [and activate] the Rothco. 👍

Rothco makes colorful wrap-around-the-head-and-neck blankets? I guess you could wrap them around your watch too. 👍

The entrepreneur in Afghanistan made a lot of money producing improvised explosive devices that resemble prayer mats. He got rich when prophets went through the roof.

Actually, I don't have their catalog...I guess I should get one. I just purchased (ordered) a Rothco black nylon helmet bag dedicated to hauling my new Moonwatch Only book...but I purchased (ordered) it through a local mom & pop Army Navy store...for some reason I like to support local businesses and actually walk into an actual store.

I just wanted to change it up a wee bit...it's a pic of my old ride from the U.S. Navy...the SH-60B Seahawk launching a Penguin anti-ship missile during testing. Unfortunately, they retired the Bravo model in 2015...the Bravo was a good bird. 👍

Come to think of it, they probably don't have a hard copy catalog...it's probably all online. When I purchased my original Rothco Commando protective bands, I purchased them online...from Rothco...but they ultimately came from various Army Navy vendors that had them in stock. Anyway, I figured that after I received the Rothcos...various hard copy catalogs would show up at my door but 'no joy'. I guess the days of hard copy catalogs are pretty much finished. 🙁

Note: We used to use old Sears catalogs for TP when we were growing up in Wisconsin in the 1960's and 1970's. Engineering at its finest! 😁

Come to think of it, I reckon your first Dunkin' Donut coffee avatar holds as much punch... ::stirthepot::
