Never seen before and " creative" ... but totally irrealistic if you dig a little. Swiss Air Patrol was initiated in 1964 with only 4 jets. http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrouille_suisse Never seen any vintage Breitling in such "special edition" . The recipe came 15-20 years further : Breitling SA started the " Patrouille" editions with the Chronomat Frecce Tricolori and extented the recipe to Navitimers in 1992-93 ( Patrouille de France ). Question : what can be the automatic caliber used with crown at 3 and 2 subdials in a " supposed to be circa 1970" watch ? |

This is an interesting piece. If it could only talk, but if it could I think that Roff is on the right track here and we would need a Chinese interpreter to get the story straight. Wayne |
