Show off your Breitlings...

Here are mine:

Chrono cockpit on an alligator strap, Chronomat Evo MOP face and diamond bezel, and Starliner MOP pink face with diamond markers... (the Chrono Evo has since left my possession)

My dad wore one for a while before I bought his Blusey. He wore the one on the right:

Here is my "Old" Navitimer which I purchased new in 1999.

In addition to the original leather band, I also have the Breitling rubber band which I tend to use in warmer weather to preserve the leather band. because I perspire a lot.

I really like it with the rubber band, but it is definitely more bulky than with the leather one.

I have never had any problems with the watch, but did have it serviced recently.

Mine and Mama San's Breitlings. I piced them up for our 5th year anniversary this June. We both love them. Hers looks really killer. It took some convincing to get her out of small watch mode, but now she loves the Breitling and its size.

Looks like it's built on the Chronomatic frame. I believe they have recently made a run of these again. I really like the Chronomatic frame - it's deisel. How do you like the 24 clock aspect? Was it hard to get used to? Definitely a cool peice.

My 1967 Breitling Navitimer. I have the OEM box and manuals as well. Had a NOS parts resto done about 7 years ago and it keeps perfect time. It's been in my family since new when my grandfather received it as a gift from a friend.

I don't wear it too much. It's a daily winder and I have a rotation of auto winders. I personally find the 24 hour dial to be impractical, too used to telling time by hand location. I bought it non running probably 15 years ago and had it seviced by Breitling. It's a really great watch, hope to never sell. I saw one in a watch shop in New Orleans that was a GMT version. It was very nice.
