grabbed some pics on the terrace again - including one of the excellent "tribute" pieces Breitling launched in the 2000s.

hope some of you'll enjoy that mini-tsunami ?

a "spider lug" Premier from 1947, ref. 797

late 1950s ref. 1191 - quite an elegant piece

Image

Image


1965 Navitimer "boxed 10"

Image

Image


late 1960s Long Playing 820/1451

Image

Image


and that wonderful Chrono-Matic SE from 2004
