Loving this breitling 1461 transocean chronograph perpetual.

This lacks the leap year however it's a gorgeous design throughout and the movement is amazing for the price.

The vintage feel and modern touches for me make it a hit!

The bracelet is a work of art and suits the watch best. I tried it on some textiles but in the end nothing beats the look of this ocean classic.

I would assume a major reason for not seeing this often is the retail price. At retail you are in the territory of many other brands that collectors covet. However for the complication and look this is hard to beat at street prices.

The one negative is this AR coating. What a complete POS. It has already shown wear. Seeing prices on replacements I will just deal with it.
