Hi chaps,

Often think the re-issue Chrono-Matic is a vastly under-rated watch.

Keeping the classic lefty winder and square hands, I love the retro feel of this beautiful watch.

It's comfy to wear easy to read and a very handsome timepiece.

Pictured with the Breitling Concorde Chronolog and my coveted 2003 Concorde Diary....NO I never used it!

I agree wholeheartedly on everything you just said. Might be my favorite B at the end of the day

Congrats on the very cool pick up

That's a beautiful watch. I love that the crown is on the left side-- very unique. I almost bought one myself. :lingsrock:

Now that's what a chrono-matic should look like!

Gorgeous watch and stunning photos Davey (as always).

That is such a beautiful watch. The sub dials really "pop" with the white dial. Love it.

Davie, I'm generally not a fan of this watch but your photos could make a £5 Casio look the bees-knees! :wink:

Cheers

As always, it's a pleasure watching your pics Davey.

And the fact that it's a BA Concorde (as opposed to the AF one) adds to the pleasure.

As always your shots are fantastic. I have never payed much attention to this watch but now I am going to have to make it a point to handle one. Very sharp and you photo's sure do not disappoint.
Best health, Frank.

That is a stunning piece indeed Davey, in a version I've not seen before. I agree with all that you say. Great pics, what a beautie!
