Hi guys,

Soon-to-be first time Breitling owner checking in.

I've been collecting a few watches over the last 5 or so years, and just tonight I've agreed a deal on two Breitlings. The first is a 1967 (from checking the serial number) 816-72 Navitimer, which I gather is relatively uncommon, and looks lovely from the photos. The second is a Crosswind Special Chronograph on a Breitling rubber strap.

For anyone who is interested, the eBay links are below (although I bought direct from the owner rather than through eBay): -

If any of you knowledgeable types could take a quick look and tell me if there's anything I should be looking out for, I'd be very grateful.

Can't wait to pick them up over the weekend, and joining the Breitling wearers on here!

Mark.

Dear tredders,

Welcome to the land of the long, slippery slope!

Your first mission, should you choose to accept it, is to post your own detailed pics of the new acquisitions...

This thread will destruct in 5 seconds (sic)...

One for the teenagers,there...

Hey Mike

Thanks for the welcome. I fully intend to take lots and lots of snaps of the new watches when I pick them up this weekend. My first Breitlings :lingsrock:

Have to say I keep staring at the pic of the old 816-72 though. Looks fantastic!

Mark.
