Hey, that’s interesting. Assume it’s to celebrate 70 years since the introduction of A V Roe’s Iconic masterpiece.

I assume the model came with the watch? If so, is it reasonably well detailed, as it’s hard to tell from the pics. Can you tell who the model maker is?

I assume Breitling are celebrating, as the Lanc would have had a Bretling dash Chronometer. Is that correct?

It's actually a 60th anniversary of the first flight produced in 2001 and was an LE of 60 ordered by Andrew Michaels with the model - there was also a Mosquito version. The model was made pewteraircraft.com if I remember correctly.

edit - Goldsmiths commissioned, not Andrew Michaels this time I think.
