You can only hold out for so long after hanging around this place for awhile :lol:

BIG thanks to Roff for all his knowledge/guidance and most importantly his patience. it was quite a process but i just took possession of the watch and i'm extremely happy! that feel of a vintage, but looks great. so weird having a manual breitling...i'm grinning ear to ear!

for the cost of a modern breitling b-2 or superocean i figured i can't lose :twisted: . wearing a light 40-41mm watch w/strap almost feels like a toywatch on my wrist...so purrty though.

I'm glad that you managed to find one, I know that it's been a lengthy search with some false starts, but it was all worthwhile. Big congratulations!

Congratulations cxbxax, those early 806's with the small sub dials are so cool. I absolutely love mine. :D
Well done

i agree david...i was specifically looking for the smaller subs. just need to find a strap to really highlight the watch. this crappy little air racer wannabe with the holes are not doing it :x
