Cool bit of kit :lingsrock:

Just out of curiosity, what do is Loctite used for?


Loctite is an adhesive used on the threads of the bracelet screws to secure them in place and prevent them from becoming loose over time.


That's good to know, I never knew that.

Loctite is used extensively for this purpose - not just in watches.

Can you write out a list of what each of the tools is? I've seen lots of these before but not 100% sure about how they're used.

Now that's a homework assignment. lol. It's bin a long time since the last post. Serge must be hard at work preparing the list.


I noticed the blue loctite on the screws when I was taking a link out of my bracelet but was too scared to reapply it. I use the stuff for my bike all the time but didn't want to ruin any of those tiny breitling screws.

I completely missed the question, sorry about that. I'll put together a list of the tools and their purpose.

That is easily the best watch related collectible I have ever seen.

I'm very jealous.

I will be hassling my AD for one the next time I see him.

He has already promised me Breitling folding pocket tool set. I don't suppose it is such a great leap to the Breitling Field Tool Kit.
