Thread: My first Breitling

  1. #1

    My first Breitling

    So I received a birthday present today. A vintage Breitling Sprint chronograph. It's my first Breitling and I've enjoyed wearing it all evening. It is keeping time but will need to go in for a service as the minute subdial doesn't reset when you reset the chronograph function. I'll also be getting a nice leather strap for it as the steel bracelet it is currently on, while nice, isn't original (I prefer my watches on leather or natos anyway). At any rate, thought I'd share a few photos with the community.

    Very nice retro vibe but doesn't look out of place in 2015.

    These retro chronos are really cool. Like the surfboard look.

    Oh and happy birthday!
