Big sigh of relief; an unmolested icon.

Gorgeous.

Please, please let it have a sapphire exhibition caseback.

That's not a bad looking piece at all. I wish they would have stayed away from the red accents and I don't like the date window cutting off part of the "10," but other than that, it's nice. A DB would have been nice.

Thanks for the link Roff.

It's a crying shame that it isn't a glass back but I do like the design they have incorporated on to the back.

My favourite Breitling for a long time.

Can't wait to see one in the shop.

I've always felt date windows are superfluous, long before computers, cell phones, etc.
arrived to provide this feature. It's a nuisance having to readjust for shorter months,
& as noted, the windows, Cyclops or not, do not enhance the overall appearance. Also,
the tachymeter scale is grossly overdone. It could be more practical for many to have
telemeter & pulseometer scales provided, not for aesthetics, but for actual applications
for certain jobs, & recreational uses.

Jesus! Really? That's what Casio's are for.

Let's add a GPS chip in it also while we're at it.

Yeah...it's a real pain in the a$$ to have to advance the date wheel that exta day on shorter months. I also hate having to wind my watches...why can't they just wind themselves. I don't want to have to do anything except put it on my wrist...scratch that...it's also a pain to have to open and close the buckle.
:guns:

Seriously...maybe mechanical watches are not for you. Stick with your cell phone...no adjustments required.
