Does anyone know of a list or web page that has a list of all the different authentic outer boxes that Breitling has used over the recent years?

Got to thinking about this yesterday when I received a new watch and it came in the airplane propellor box, but this one has a gloss finish instead of the matte finish I had on my others. Searched around the internet and really didn't find much.

I'm 99% someone did a very good post on here about all the different boxes.

I know it will give hundreds of results but all I can suggest is to use the search and go through them one by one.

(I really should bookmark the "That will come in handy one day" posts!)

Breitling Bloke wrote a thread around a couple of years ago, describing genuine box's compared to fakes.

Thanks, I had actually found that post previously during my searches.

I was hoping to find something that logged all of the various designs and changes over the years.

Since it doesn't seem like there may be a complete listing, maybe someone can answer this....

Why are some of the black and yellow propellor boxes matte finish and some are glossy finish? Has anyone ever figured out the rhyme or reason to this? On another forum, one of the discussions thought that the matte boxes were for US AD's and the glossy were overseas at UK AD's, but no one ever came to a conclusion.

For what it's worth, both of my boxes are from US AD's and one is matte and the other is glossy. Identical propellor design, just a different finish.
