Post subject:  Chrono-Matic 24LE...you are my density

Just picked up a showroom floor condition Chrono-Matic 24LE. :uplaugh: I have loved Breitlings since I had a reason to wear a watch...from the classic early Chronomat to the Bentley's...I love them all. But I believe I have found my horological soul mate.
The C-M 24LE. :shock:

This photo doesn't do 'er justice, but I just couldn't wait to show her off. I promise some solid photos coming soon (including a movement shot for the BreitlingSource home site!).

Think you mean destiny, not mass/volume

George McFly (Back to the Future). Maybe too obscure a movie ref...just one of my personal fav's.

Much sought after Calibre 12 movement too. Be interesting to see if the time keeper in this one is Rhodium plated. Some were, and are the pinnacle of this movements development.

Later

Not obscure for me, made me smile immediately I read it....(can you believe that movie is 26 years old... :shock: )

I've used it more than once!

Now an obscure movie quote would be;

"How 'bout you....string bean Rik James looking fool..."

The Last Dragon.

Post subject:  Re: Chrono-Matic 24LE...added some 22LC Movement Pics!

Here are a couple internals boys. Not the best pics...but the "good" camera is in the shop. The pics don't do the movement justice. Bright, shiny, beautiful.

Enjoy :lingsrock:

Many Congratulations.

That is a true classic already and much lamented by people on this very forum. Great pick up indeed.

Thanks for the photos. Looking forward to your efforts with the "good" camera.
