Hi,
I'm a newbie here. Here ae a few pics of the watch that got me started collecting. This 806 was given to me by my father several years ago. I love this watch for its timeless design and its many personal memories. This piece will always be the centerpiece of my collection.

Yeah, I know . . . the date on the pics . . . :?

Great watch, thanks for sharing

the old 50ies and 60ies Breitlings with the Venus 178 Mvmnts (Nav, Cosmo, AVI , Co-Pilots etc) are really my favorites
