As far as I know this hand wound Montbrillant Edition was never available in the British Isles. It's a shame because it's a real beauty.

I've always particularly liked the way the markers are gold like the hands on this model unlike the Monty Legende which had silver markers and gold hands. That always looks odd to me.

Nice piece.

Congrats that's pretty cool. I like it. There's something about a hand wound watch that's been calling to me. What's the power reserve and the diameter by the way?

Power reserve - 42 hours
Diameter - 43mm
according to BreitlingSource.

By the way, that is a great dial, good size date! Awesome :bow:
