					| Hello All,
The Navitimer of modern times has been slandered on this forum.....
 
 This is very wrong....
 
 A friend of mine.... a pilot for Mosad..... told me the following....
 
 Mosad uses Brietlings and Omegas with mechancial movements for a very serious reason.... apparantly quartz watches would stop working if a nuclear blast occurred within a certain range...... The crystal would blow and the watch would be useless..... however a mechanical watch does not have this problem.  It would keep going long after the radiation killed the human.
 
 Low ranking mosad people apparantly get Hamiltons...... the more senior -the better the watch.......
 
 The only proviso is that the watch must have an eta movement.... so it could be repaired by any watchmaker the world over.
 
 Please don't think I am pulling your leg on this matter.....
 
 Also the agents were told to always keep the watch fully charged..... they were encourged to always keep the watch on......
 
 Kind regards,
