Post subject:  My Latest Arrival - The Black Hercules
I picked this up the other day, a very nice Breitling Hercules, A39363, late 2006 with full B&P's, and the stunning Black Dial.

The previous owner barely wore it, so it's in really nice condition, and running at around -3 secs per day.

I have a major soft spot for the Hercules, just love 'em - enjoy the pics! And if anyone has a spare link to sell for the bracelet, I'd be interested - it's a little snug on me at just about 8".

Cheers

And just to give an idea of the size (44.8mm), shown up against a full size SMP (41.5mm) and a Steelfish (44mm).

Always had a soft spot for the Herc. Especially this later brushed finish version with the silver, as opposed to the earlier "same coloured", subs.

Looks 95/100 (only because it has no date function)
Movement: it is what it is......

I am curious how a modified ETA movement gets a 95/100???

I'm more curious why the looks score so low. It's a handsome watch.

Not familiar with this watch are you?

It has a two hand totalizer sub-dial at 6 o'clock. Makes all the difference in measuring elapsed time...

Nicer than the B01 in my opinon. That's just another "me too" movement in terms of function..
