This is a good one! I need one like this, for sure. I've got a couple off Amazon that did the job for various pin and tube bracelets, especially Citizen watches purchased as gifts.
Although I don't plan on buying more watches (Ha!), sometimes adjustments are needed I find as these pins at times can start to come out.

I remember hearing about this story before. If true, that's quite the find.
Recently someone told me a story about a family member going south of the border, buying what was then though to be a $300 replica, for some reason sending it into Rolex and it turned out to be a real Daytona.

Congratulations, Bernie! As you know, I have an appreciation for Casio watches, G-Shock's especially.
This is a nice piece with a theme that is meaningful to you. Solar is the way to go for these, even with minimal light they seem to stay full from my experience with all 3 of my solar Casio's.

I didn't know this or think so until someone in distress so to speak posted on another forum trying to find out where they could get one from. Doing the battery changes yourself is the way to go in my opinion.

That's an interesting point! I don't know why, but a part of me always seems to lean towards the previous/discontinued version of Breitling watches.
Although I really like this one, depending on what current pre-owned prices are, it might be a tough decision.
The only solution is to to see this in person and get a better idea of how it actually looks and feels. Man oh man, I need an Aerospace. Hopefully the proprietary screwdriver can be easily found so battery changes can be done by me until it's really time to change the seals.

I might actually do this. To me, I would rather have this over a Moonswatch. Now I'm going to go browse them online!

Some people love the Ti GShocks - I can’t bring myself to send $2k on a GShock. Agreed, I admire those but can't see myself ever paying that much for one.

That's a nice watch! I get why some have entire collections focused on different G-Shock watches.

Sweet! I did not see this yet, hardly had time to check in over the last few days. This is a really good move on their part and a legendary dive watch.

At one point I also wanted a Moonswatch, but the availability issue put me off.
Finally I was downtown Toronto for an event, walked right past the Swatch store and even saw the display for the original releases. Didn't bother going in.

I forgot to note earlier that I'm THRILLED this piece has the wings logo, being a true professional model and all.
I'm a huge Breitling fan, but mainly for the "Instruments for Professionals" inspired pieces.
Breitling as a brand has supported history being made with regards to aviation in so many ways.

This is such a nice piece! Was never able to justify one, but would like to have one in the collection some day.
