http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BREITLING-BENTLEY ... 3612505684 It seems to me that one will at least have to have the level of Einstein to figure out what time it is on the Le Mans - in this case it should be 2PM ? Or did I just expose my lack of intelligence? :mrgreen:

I've never had a problem with 24 hour dials, you adapt to them very quickly.

:yeahthat Takes maybe a day or two and then you hardly notice it. It is just as easy to switch back and forth between dial layouts

Technically, this planet has 23 hours and 56 minutes in each day -- now that is a dial that I'd like to see :nana:
