:lingsrock:to wear. I don't know about others but I have the problem of trying to decide which Breitling. Right now I've got my silver dial 50th anniversary on the wrist. Earlier I had on my ref 12022.1 lemania 1873 Cossie. My 2008 Cossie is on a winder. My latest, a Colt ll quartz on rubber strap is in one of my watch cases. Then there are the other non Breitlings going back to two Hamiltons from 1929 and 1931. Both run well and are all original except straps. I am a big fan of Tutimas with the Lemania 5100 chronograph movement. I have three different models and just ordered another today. I agree with Chuck Maddox about the 5100 being his favorite. There is an article, from several years ago, in which he articulates "why". Some days it's Breitling, others, Omega or Tutima. The agony of decision. :bow:

Ok, here are my three mechanicals: Cossie with 1873 Lemania on strap, 50th anniversary Navitimer and my 2008 Cossie on bracelet. Behind is my Breitling cap from around 1996. Image
