BBC1 last night, moderisation of Sherlock Holmes - Sherlock (stunning television!) BBCigrab it!

It is a Windrider Special I think, notice the way he slurs the model release date.

I was always curious what's the meaning of "1884" date Breitling puts on their watches...

Now it makes perfect sense - Mr Holmes and Dr Watson, these guys were around the turn from 19th to 20th century - I can easily see Watson as a Breitling guy, I bet you he wore Breitling watch when he served in India. :strummin:

Unfortunately the guy portrayed wearing the Crosswind in the program was a Merchant Banker. Both professionally and personality wise.

:(
