Hello, I have been lurking on a few Breitling forums and decided this looks like the place to be. I have been collecting watches for about 7 years. Of course Breitlings are my primary interest, but I have a little bit of everything (ok maybe not everything). I have a strong interest in vintage watches and hope someday to have the time to learn to repair them as I have way to many projects.
I am involved in the motorsport and aviation industries through my company, so watches that relate to those areas are of special interest to me.
I look forward to interacting with the members here. It appears to be a knowledgeable and passionate group.

Thanks for the warm welcome. In the next few days I will try to get some pictures or scans of some vintage info that may be of interest to some. I have a copy of an old (approx 1940) catalog and also some info from a parts catalog about Landeron movements used in Breitlings. Nothing earth shattering but interesting none the less.

I have seen well over a hundred Breitlings with Landeron movements and exactly zero of them have been genuine.
