I just picked up this second hand blue dialed Headwind on divers pro strap..a lucky find locally in my city. Flawless mint head with no scratches and dings, also the divers pro strap does not even have a sign of it being worned:) Love the day and date configuration. Also the dial diameter specs on this is 43.7...to me looks alot smaller then my Chronomat Evo I use to have but maybe because it's on a strap instead of a pilot bracelet. Probabely later going to pick up a black calfskin leather strap for it.

The older Breitling boxes looks a bit budget:P

Nice! Congrats. I just bought a diver strap for my steelfish and I love it. Only problem is its huge. I use the last hole on it and it fits fine, but still... 6.5" wrist is apparently the smallest that they support.

Looks great on a Diver Pro :D

I would never have thought of putting a Headwind on a rubber strap but it looks fantastic!

I'm going to have to visit my AD on Monday to get one!

Congrats! I love the dial of the headwind, the day/date configuration and the 'par epargne' method looks awesome. Seems that a lot of people are selling headwinds sans bracelet. Guess they figure they'd make more money selling them seperately.

Good find, especially in that kind of superb condition. The Headwind is probably my favourite non-chronograph watch. Great piece! :thumbsup:

Gorgeous! I always loved the look of this watch. It would even look cool on an ocean racer. :wink: Congrats and wear it in good health.
