Another well built Chrono. Some specs on this Breitling. :)

Movement: Breitling 13 (Base 7750)
Power Reserve: 42 Hours 
Water Resistance: 300m (1000ft)
Bezel: Unidirectional
Crown: Screw down
Crystal: Sapphire
Case: 45mm w/o crown
Thickness: 17.4mm
Lug Width: 22mm with OEM leather strap.


Yeppers I had to go for another. ;) With a 20% price increase looming I decided waiting for Christmas on this one had to change. I just put a few other watches on the back burner and sold a gold chain to cover part of it. :cool: LOL :D

Thanks Scott. It is one I have been eyeballing from release. There is one made in black steal that Oscar posted about some time back but it goes for about twice as much too so I opted out of selling my soul for it. :cool: Yea this baby will do just fine. ;)

Ooh - another grail in yahoo.gif. Well done, Skip - you sly dawg! That really is a substantial Breitling beauty. It looks perfect on the leather... I bet it is a comfy big puppy with those ergonomic lugs? I am just shaking my head in amazement and I'm thrilled for ya, Skip. Looks spectacular, good sir. Sorry you lost a gold chain to buy it - but happy you preserved your soul, and managed to save 20% :D.

Congratulations! Enjoy!

If I wasn't such an Omega junkie I would have a breitling by now!
I'm really taking a liking to the diver models!

Nice nice watch!

Thanks much Steve. :) This Summer when I get out more I may check out the thrift stores, antique shops and estate ales and see if I can find a vintage actually. I have a few sites I watch now and then too. :D ;)

It wouldn't be a hobby if you didn't get pleasure out of it, it would be more like something called work:D.
