Just got this one but not sure it will be staying long. Tough for my old eyes to pick up the hands quickly. Still a pretty cool watch though and my first Moonphase.

I guess you also like the not-too-vintage pieces too huh Paul?  Looks sweet~ by the way I saw your Bidynator sell for 420... not too bad of a flip~ and your co-pilot ended at 3k... that price is an insult to a timepiece like that...

Some can be break even watches like the Unidate with the Bidynator. I had to send it out to get serviced because it was losing a few minutes a day. It's going to Sweden tomorrow. Had to make a little more room for the new stuff. The Copilot; I've got someone that made an offer but he's currently on vacation for a week so we'll see if he takes it or not. Really don't care if I sell that one anyway. Also picked up a Pluton, Navitimer 1806, Headwind, and Chronomat last week. Just waiting for the rest of them to show up. Living nowhere near an AD I have to buy them to determine if I like them. Some stay around a while and some go right back out.  If I had my druthers it would be to keep the Copilot and Navitimer 1806 and sell everything else I have. They are a really good representation of Breitling watches that will never significantly depreciate. Oh, and I can't sell my old Bulova Snorkel which I got as a high school graduation present.

This is one of the nicest watches that Breitling made at the end of the 90s in my opinion. An unusual movement, stand out arabic numbers and I absolutely love the combination of gold hands on a white dial - a future classic in my mind. However, I expected a better job of aligning the bezel from you Paul!
