Excellent choices... I'm still shamelessly lusting for a red Sub as well.
An 806 is IMO a must for any vintage Breitling enthusiast. The Speedmaster is a given for any collection period.


Thanks mate, very much true, some great icons we have the pleasure of belonging to our times!

Nice group of iconic pieces ! :drool:
Which one do you wear more often ?



Thanks mate! Though I love the other two too I must admit the Red Sub gets the most wrist time primarily because it's waterproof and I don't have to worry about slipping it into my pocket everytime there is a drizzle or I need do a hand wash.

Great trio Cruvon.

I have to say though, for me the beautifully patinated Navi is delicious.



Thanks mate, that custardy patina is what attracted me to the Navi too, only time and the right exposure to the elements can achieve that, priceless!
