Not bad Fred :lol:

I do think that the Milanaise style works best on white dials, so I'll give you a passing grade on that one :wink:


That was my concern too. My C M is black of course and not white like Fred's. But after seeing other watches Fred has posted, sporting this same strap, I think it works just as well, and for different reasons. Might try and see if there is a dark grey version instead of polished stainless as an alternative.

Not convinced on the mesh...yet, BUT those are some beautiful pics of the white dial CM44. I could never make mine look that good. Don't you have a black dial 44 as well? (I only ask because I am planning a burglary spree on Austria).

A smash and grab or are we doing Ocean's 11?



PM me. We need a crew. I figure Fred's collection is about the same as the Bellagio vault on a fight night in Vegas.

Given that I am inheriting Fred's watches some day (assuming that there is a container ship large enough to ship them) I can't support this :nono:

Well if he puts me in his will too then I'll just back out of our grand master plan as well.

Hi guys,

Reviving an old thread. I'm a newbie to Breitling. I recently took a bit of a gamble and bought an A41360 chrono-matic through ebay.

Its in service with Breitling now. 12week wait! Thankfully verified as legit.

Interestingly its a Reno Air Show model (50 made). Special logo on the dial and also on the case back with the # out of 50.

I've Googled till my fingers bled, but I can't seem to find much info on it. Does anyone have anymore back story to the Reno models? Anything special about it other than the Reno logos?

Thanks in advance :)

A model is issued every year as part of sponsorship of the Reno air races. Essentially just a regular model with a logo.
