Thanks for this post, Scot. There are some real gems there -- and, overall, it is just a fantastic assortment of pieces. Also, picking up from your other thread -- your Blue Sky Navi is gorgeous. ![]() Many thanks for taking the time to share your fantastic collection! |

Good to see the full collection Scot. Seeing your Breitlings is a reminder that sooner or later I need to get a Steelfish. |

Awesome collection, it is really difficult to choose a daily wear with that many choices. I could see my self going back and forth to the exit door while my wife waits in the car ![]() And for me - I would be more than happy with your wife's box ![]() |

Splendid SOTC, thank you. Can't help thinking that you need a Zenith in there! |

I have one of the limited edition Tipo CP2s as @ https://www.********.com/articles/zenit ... ntroducing or https://www.fratellowatches.com/zenith- ... p-2-review - so I would say that. It's one of my absolute favourite watches: 43mm but (as the reviews) observe it wears smaller due to the curved lugs; wonderful legibility; the El Primero movement etc. |

When I was in the hunt for a Zenith, I was drawn to the 410 -- it's a beautiful chronograph. The thing is though, that that the "star" on the end of the chrono seconds hand sits right over the moonphase window, and pretty much obscures it. The workaround from a photo standpoint is to photograph it with the chrono seconds hand running, or to opt for angles that minimize this fact. For me personally, I decided that this would drive me nuts over time -- so, sadly, I decided against the 410. But, it is indeed a really nice Zenith. I'm surprised that the Cronometro is no longer in the Zenith catalogue. For a while there, Zenith had some really nice versions of this one. The one you're thinking of is certainly a great version, as well. Don't know if you've seen the Zenith Defy in action -- it is a true horological marvel. Really amazing. It's one you really have to see in action to believe it! The one Zenith I still think about is the Pilot Extra Special, in either the time-only or chronograph versions. 45mm is pretty substantial, but I really am drawn to these models -- very cool! |

Wow, just wow - incredible collection... I can only imagine some of the stories that must be tied to some of these pieces - proud to be the owner of one of the Breitling Backpacks you sold a few years ago, haha! |

Speechless!!! Thanks for posting, I'd be happy with anyone of those in my collection. The Chronoliner has been on my radar since it's release, so hopefully, sometime this year I can put that right. P.S. do you ever 'nick' any of your other-halfs? |
