In the 1985 Breitling catalogue appeared a curious watch...

Image

A short run piece, with a military look...

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

You can take out the compass to use it alone...

Image

...or just turning back the watch...

Image

The strap shows several scales to read maps...

Image

...and the Morse code on the other side...

Image

Lume shot...

Image

...and wristshots...

Image

Image

A video...

What a brilliantly functional watch. Its true to its purpose and use, and will therefore always remain of interest.

Congratulations on a stunning watch.
