Breitling Super Avenger II Automatic Chronograph Black Rubber Strap Men's Watch A1337111-BC29BKPD3

Is opportunity knocking?
A coworker has a buddy into watches who's trying to generate some cash. He has an old Seamaster he wants to trade for my recent bumper. Condition will tell us how much difference I will kick in, and naturally we both know it's contingent on our own watchmakers taking a look under the hood. It's a late 50's model with the full auto movement. I don't have all the details yet as this is still being kicked around. I can ask my watchmaker, but I'd like some pointers from this forum. What should I look for besides the normal cosmetic condition? I know the basics (Logo on the crown, swiss made at the bottom under the minute indicators, raised dial logo and proper font of the text) but a few picks of yours from that era would be helpful....and any excuse to post pics is a good one!Thanks,Dennis

Breitling for Bentley Barnato Racing - A Review
I have been generously leant this Barnato Racing by a friend and colleague for review.If you have read most of my previous watch reviews you will know that I purposefully shy away from the car-watch analogies. The main reason for this is that these descriptive similes are used readily by those that frequent watch forums. It¡¯s a universal method for explaining the specifics of a particular timepiece. I will not be making any car-watch correlations within this review but I will be highlighting multiple parallels between one famous luxury car manufacturer and a highly established high end watch manufacturer. No prizes for guessing: Bentley and Breitling, respectively. Let¡¯s face it: if you are of the demographic who like high end timepieces you probably also know a reasonable amount about high end motor cars. Both are highly covetable objects that go way beyond their functionality. Both are driven by mechanical engines whose designers and artisans are motivated by reliability and desirabi

Watch Winder for Breitling and Ball
I have a Breitling Crosswind and a Ball Engineer. According to the Orbita website, the Breitling requires 800 turns per day and the Ball is 600 turns. What is the best watch winder?Saw a nice Wolf Designs dual watch winder for $600 on Amazon but reading the description, it says it only does 600 turns per day. Is that enough for the Breitling?Is the Orbita Sparta that much better?

Interesting 5711 on the bay....
Not sure what to think of this.... Deff not my cup of tea but it looks like it was well done at least. What do you think?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
