I was attracted aesthetically only …
In Response To: Who Likes the Old Breitlings? ()

… by a pair of Breitling watches, before I further researched their horological importance and rarity.

I like the large skewed bezel and the tone of the rich and untouched dial of this 1963 Breitling Cosmonaute ref. 809:

Although I'm not fond of the nature's colors like green or brown I love the colors from beige over golden, orange and brown to almost black of this Breitling Navitimer GMT ref. 812:

BTW, I would like to get a replacement inner bezel for this watch.

These are my only Breitling watches -- and I do not feel the need to buy any other vintage Breitling.

Cheers,

Mick
