I have owned my Rolex Datejust for 10+ years and wanted to start a small watch collection. I wanted something a little older this time around. I came across this VERY VERY good condition Breitling Sprint 2016. I want to Thanks Roffensian for educating me on the style. I think this NOS has a unique history. Here are some photos of my Xmas gift to myself...LOL

Very interesting strap. Never seen that one before with that buckle. I wonder if it's an original Sprint strap? |
