Post subject: | My history |
Being new here I thought I'd let you know my history. Not to bore you too much I thought I'd stick to the old addage that "a picture tells a thousand words". One thing my pictures WILL tell you, is I'm a S**t photographer. ![]() Anyway here goes My first. (by the way, this is a keeper ) FAMOUS BLOODY LAST WORDS!!! AAARRGGGHHH ![]() ![]() Then I saw this........ ![]() Which became this at its first service ![]() ....but was sold to finance this (My "Grail" watch) ![]() However prior to buying it, and knowing that they were possibly going to become as scarce as Hobby Horses pooh, I aquired the UTC BEFORE buying the Emergency. Oh and while ordering the Emergency, I had to snap this Blue boy up. (well it was in the sale and was also now a discontinued Breitling icon) I call this one "Brothers". ( Watches are male aren't they. They are in France) ![]() So as it stands, I just have "The Professionals". Cowley is obviouly the "E", I'll let you decide which is Bodie and Doyle. ![]() The wish list? Navitimer Breitling Fighters CA M-1 Team SEB Limited B-2 Black (Batton dial) Which was (nearly) achieved. (Went for a Red Arrows instead of B.Fighters) ![]() ![]() |

Very nice story and pics. I saw a Yellow Emergency with UTC on eBay the other day and I was SO tempted to pull the trigger! |
