Dang, one of those would match my Breitling for Bentley model that I have quite nicely ;)

I love this watch. This similar watch stood out among many other when I visited the AD earlier this week. This Cosmonaut I looked at did NOT have the display back though, which I absolutely love. Do you think it is possible to still find this watch NOS at a dealer? I would love to have one of these. Does any know the model number for the watch? What is something like this going for these days? Lots of silly questions, sorry?
:breitling3

You saw A22322, DB ref. is A12023. I don't think that you can find it NOS at an AD anymore.


Definitely not - it's from 1995.

Are you sure? Always thought that it's from 97.


Well that's one of the great mysteries of our time.

As best as I can tell it's a 95 model available from 1994 to 1995. That said, I have heard anecdotal stories of them from 1993 until 1997. It's an SE, not an LE, and there are something like 3,000 of them. Mine was first sold in early 1995.

Thanks for the info. :thumbsup:

DB Cosmo is not an expensive piece. Bought mine from a UK dealer for GBP1,500. The challenge is trying to find them of course, but incredible value.

I don't know how you managed to find that deal Roff! I thought I'd have a little look around the net today and all I could find are non-DB Lemania versions from 95ish for around £2500!!! :shock:

I didn't get any tremendous deal - it was an eBay purchase, and only from earlier this year. There are 3,000 or so of them about so they do come up.

I think Aleister had to pay more for his, but he got the rarer blue dial.
