Hello My Fellow Breitling Enthusiast! :lingsrock:

There is another Breitling Book titled: Breitling - The History Of A Great Brand Of Watches 1884 To Present

Copy Right is 2007 3rd edition put out by Schiffer which is currently available

Cost is $49.95 plus tax // Is this Book worth the Money ?


Best Regards,

Enezdez

That's Benno Richter's book.

It's 'the bible' on vintage watches, although still has a number of errors and a lot of omissions.

If you are interested in the history and in older pieces then it's a good reference.

You are also nuts to pay $50 for it - readily available at the usual book sources for less than that.

I have it, it's very interesting and fun to thumb through. I pull it down once in while.
