Thanks for the help guys. I found this scanned guide from 1967! http://www.breitlingsource.com/articles_slide_rule.shtml

Does anyone know where I can get a comprehensive guide to the slide rule / chronometer functions for this particular watch (or a general one that applies to all similar Breitlings)? I just got mine and am really anxious to learn how to use it....no luck finding official manuals on the net. Thanks.

Is that just temporary due to the season? I was thinking of making another order soon. When do you think it'll clear up?

Greetings RWG'ers! I just ordered the following from Josh @ PC: BLBE10001 Bentley 30s Chrono SS/SS White Asia 7750 28800bph (BLBE10001) [w][w][w].1-pc8838.com/blbe10001-bentley-chrono-ssss-white-asia-7750-28800bph-p-8227.html This is my first order from him, going to OTTAWA, CANADA. Considering I paid in SGD, I'm assuming its origin is Singapore. For all of the other Canadian users on here, I want to document the order in this post starting from the ordering date (Today - 2011/01/25), to the shipping date, to the exact day I receive it. Looking forward to documenting the process.

Thanks everyone! Just in case anyone can give me their two cents from experience, I'm interested in the following pieces: BL02058 Bentley 6.75 Big Date Chrono SS Black A-7750 Sec@3 28800 1-pc8838.com/bl02058-bentley-date-chrono-black-a7750-sec3-28800-p-3681.html BL02062 Bentley 6.75 Big Date Chrono SS White A-7750 Sec@3 28800 1-pc8838.com/bl02062-bentley-date-chrono-white-a7750-sec3-28800-p-3684.html BLBE10001 Bentley 30s Chrono SS/SS White Asia 7750 28800bph 1-pc8838.com/blbe10001-bentley-chrono-ssss-white-asia-7750-28800bph-p-8227.html BL02021 Bentley 30s Model T SS Black Asia 7750 28800bph 1-pc8838.com/bl02021-bentley-model-black-asia-7750-28800bph-p-2686.html I'm also a classic car nut...I'm looking to get a new rep to match a (new) old 86' Bentley Mulsanne (white/burgundy interior) that I just acquired. Any first thoughts are appreciated.

Appreciate the prompt tips, iron. I've been reading the forums the last couple of hours - amazing what you can learn in such a short period of time. Thanks again.
