FasTTaP Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 As for Breitling's marketing: My friends, if you're using your bezel slide rule to flight plan, you've probably had a number of systems malfunction to the point that you're in deep deep [censored]!

Willith Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 Those were great, I think the Panerai one is probably the most accurate followed closely by the FM ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ehtolcad Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 What no Panerai? pug's (replica) attempt, albeit cute, missed the actual reason why there is no (gen) panerai listing. the real reason is that there is nothing AVERAGE about a panerai owner. he'll find that out as soon as that 111 arrives... and if you don't believe me, just ask the paneristi!

that_watch_guy Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Awesome pics for the Breguet, that watch was mentioned in the book "The New English Dandy" and I think that's where the first pic came from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I used to work on the staff of a committee Ted Kennedy served on--he usually wears one of JFK's Omegas or a beat up Patek which may have been Old Man Joe's.
