OT Again.. Breitling Chronomat 808

[delgado]

A simple chrono based on the Venus 17J movement from the 1960s but in such nice condition of both case and dial that I could not pass up..

I have been on a red chrono kick lately..

Very nice.

And about ten years later, they looked like these....

Both very nice:
The dial from the old ones and the straps from the new ones would match perfect.
Kind regards

Lovely watch Ed!

People are going crazy after these movements lately... and I can see why! ;)

They do look quite nice. So do yours, too, Percy!

Cheers-

Nice Ed - I bought a more contemporary Navi late last year.
