It is a beautiful watch. i really like the retro pushers. I think the black dial version looks great on the mesh.


I see from your signature that you have a 1972 TransOcean. I'm guessing it looks nothing like the re-issued one.


Yeah, totally different. The new TransOcean looks a lot more like a vintage Top Time.

You have to wonder why Breitling didn't decide to call the new 01 powered model the Top Time.

The TransOcean may seem more marketable I suppose but you can't under-estimate the power of having your watch on James Bond's wrist. Arguably one of the main reasons that Rolex and Omega dominate the sports watch market.
