Gotta love the contrast of the "Old Navitimer" dial detail with the surface finish of the 40's vintage toy airplane...  Cheers, Ron  |

Incrediable pictures Ron Do you wear them on bracelets much? quite a bit on bracelets. I love the look and quality of Breitling bracelets. Best in the industry IMHO. I have quite a few different flavor bracelets for my Breitlings. Original 5 segment per link Navi bracelets in SS and SS/Gold, late 7 segment per link SS Navi bracelet, Pilot bracelets SS and SS/Gold, UTC SS/Gold Pilot bracelet, UTC Fighter bracelet (B-1), Fighter bracelet, extra links, etc. I also have croco straps one of which is UTC sized for the B-1 or Crosswind plus about 6 Breitling calf leather straps. I've given relatives all flavors of bracelets and straps for their Breitlings as well but none of them swap out strap/bracelet combinations like I do. I wear them about an equal amount I suppose but I probably take more pics of watches on straps. If I set up a shot with a bracelet I have to pull out the old Cape Cod polishing cloth first and I often will still pick up microscratches in the photos on the bracelets which get a lot of wrist time. Whenever I have a bracelet polished such as during a service I'll try to take a number of shots with it before it starts acquiring desk diver marks. I also think the strap shots tend to give more focus to the watch details and those shots are also a bit easier to take. I have a couple of Cosmos and a couple of Navi's and I do prefer the classic strap appearance on them more than the B-1 or two tone Crosswind. My next B will probably be a MOP dial SS Chronomat Evolution which looks equally terrific on bracelet or strap IMO. Sorry for the long answer. I'm just drinking coffee and musing today... Cheers, Ron |

Maybe a little overboard with the 2nd pic (red). The chrono second hand really picks up the color reflection too much I think... Cheers, Ron   |
