There was a LE of 1,000 Chronomatic 24 hour models - http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... er_83.html

I don't recall seeing a blue, but there may have been.

It does exist. It is on my wrist as we speak. It was for the Italian Breitling market only, although the story is that it may have leaked to a couple of AD's in France and/or Germany. In any event, let me try to post my first picture of what they look like....

And it is, in fact, an LE of 250.
Cheers!

BTW, all, I believe there is still an example of one of these for sale on the Italian version of the bay. Don't expect to pay via paypal, though. Bank transfer only for this seller, apparently. I also do not believe they are an AD.

http://cgi.ebay.it/Breitling-Chrono-Mat ... .m14.l1318

I purchased mine via an AD (I had to brush up on my Italian, as we did everything via fax and voice, as the Snr. had no e-mail!!).

It doesn't have to be a cool LE - a decent size Chronomat with roman numerals is ok too...

Except that's the BUSA president, so no guarantee that they'll be globally available.

But that is nice!!

The globe gets smaller every day. You guys can shop on this side of the pond almost as easily as you can walk down to the corner market ;)
