I know of two of them. Mick on the TZ forum (screen name "Pigdog") has one and has posted pics many times. Take a look at his posts over there and you'll find a pic of his CWSLE sport. :wink:
Cheers,
Ron

NOW I remember who had the other one. I even remember when you got it John. I have always thought that piece was one of the nicest and most unique ever built by Breitling. I actually like it better than the two tone CWSLE even though that one is a little more "flashy". As you know, MartynJC has one (reacquired one after selling one) and I think Mick has at least two more, one black dial one white, to go with his Sport CWSLE. I've seen Mick's collection pictured and it is stunning. BTW, I have a bone to pick with you. What do you MEAN writing a post about your Sport CWSLE without an accompanying pic?!! Don't make me send Mick over to your house for a little talk....
:-)
Cheers,
Ron

Ron, I have been promising for ages to hold a photography session. In fact, I owe our Admin friend pics of this very piece.
Long story....
In any event, I always have an excuse....
You remember those guys from the old days when you served, right?
"I promise, I promise!", yet never follow through?

Not sure if I can hold my own with Mick, as I can barely run PT these days...I might have to ply him with a pint or two to keep my butt safe.
How about this: I'll break out the camera this weekend and do some quick and dirty pics. Post 'em and be done with it.
Until then, I plan on training the leaders of tomorrow.

Sorry, Siglo. This one is a keeper and is the result of two years of searching. Best of luck to you.

Me too! (But unfortunately I think the photo session mentioned was for the CSSLE.)

There isn't an asked price - only states the original price was approx. $7470. I guess you have to email the seller with an offer to know the price he wants.
