they've done the strangest things in the 1980s, but I doubt a 1:1 Rolex copy was among them.

I never say impossible about these Quartz watches, even if they seem absurd, Paul.
a Doxa & a Rolex, how innovative, Mr. Schneider.

Just picked up this brochure I'm thinking is from around 1980 and there isn't one mechanical wristwatch offered by Breitling. I sent scans to Roff so he can add them to the brochure page on BS. You will be surprised at some of the watches for sale.

thank you for that, Paul; though I now remember you had posted this page before - I apparently just refused to remember this piece.
though we might see a 25 Ans d'Humiliation LE re-edition in 2015, at least they couldn't botch this one ....
