The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I find my taste in watches maturing since I've joined this forum, especially for the Breitling brand. I've also started to have a passion for limited pieces that one doesn't see everyday. So I just wanted to see who else likes the limited pieces and are willing to share some pics. I'll start with my newest installment, a crosswind LE. This is definitely a watch that I knew nothing about before I joined this forum, and since I've acquired it, I realize that most of these pieces are becoming harder and harder to come by and It's people like us that keep them from being obsolete.

Sorry for the blurry pic!

That's a beautiful piece Matt, enjoy it awesome watch

The SOHC LE, a watch I sold after great deliberation and in the end I probably didn't need too. Loved that watch, very versatile. Looks very sporty on the OR but very classy on the mesh IMO!

I have mixed feelings on the LE's. I like them, but I don't think the modern Breitling LE's that have 2,000 piece runs are all that limited. The 500 piece ones definitely seem more rare. Here are the LE's I have or have had in my collection at some point.

Avenger Code Yellow



Blackbird Blacksteel



Navi 01



Omega Speedmaster with Meteorite Dial

Nice guys! Keep 'em coming! I realize that some are more limited than others, but the way I see it is there is something like 7 billion plus people in the world, all the sudden 1000 or even 2000 seems very small.

I have a number of LEs from Breitling and other brands. In some cases the LE element adds to the appeal, but usually only if it is actually different - like a display back. I discount most of the 'LE element' factor of modern Breitlings simply because there are too many made for them to be really considered limited.

That makes cense Roff, I do wish they would use the display back on more of there LEs, but I guess then they wouldn't be as exclusive at that point.

I love my limited edition but I really haven't worn it much. I love that there's only 50 of them.
