Congrats Paul.

Old World's stuff is really getting down to the last gasp now isn't it.

They have done the collecting community a great service in the last few years though.

7104 is a great watch!

When I talked to them last week they indicated there's not much left. I think people are sensing it's getting down to the bottom of the barrel and are picking up what's left while there's still an opportunity. The 7104.3 comes with two different bezels and I've had the other bezel nos in my parts drawer for 5 years just hoping that maybe one would come along that I could use it on. Funny how things work out. :) I've got a nos Tropic big hole rubber strap coming from Squinky that should be here after Memorial Day. Same kind that's in the 1970 catalog prominently.

That's a great watch. I love the 70's style Breitlings (though the helmet shaped cases aren't my favorite, but what can you do?)

How does one get in touch with the Old World folks? I'd be curious to know what they've got!

Nice nice~

Just curious though Paul... what made you pick it up right now? They've always had them for awhile now... Ever since I can recall I was a member here... probably even before that...

I don't know really. I'm never going to wear it. The thought that it was the last of the last made it appealing from a collectors point of view and maybe I procrastinated too long thinking there would always be a supply.

Well as long as you got it, that's all that matters...

come to think about it... I should've picked one up myself... :lol:
