Breitling Cosmonaute Limited Edition
The year was 1962. The space race was well under way, and as a supplier to civilian and military aviation, Breitling took a keen interest in this new adventure. Using the Navitimer chronograph as a base, the brand’s technicians developed the Cosmonaute, a space-going version of this instrument indicating the daily 24 hours in a single sweep of the dial. This configuration prevented confusion between midday and midnight. On May 24, 1962, astronaut Scott Carpenter tested this instrument under real-life conditions during his orbital flight aboard the Aurora 7 capsule. For its 125th anniversary, Breitling is issuing a limited series of the model that became the first wrist chronograph in space. Only 1,000 of these Cosmonaute watches will be produced, all equipped with an original version of the 24-hour dial. Reflecting its character as a 1960s design icon, the Cosmonaute Limited Edition is fitted exclusively with the rigid perforated Air Racer bracelet.The Cosmonaute Limited Edition

My Gift Giving Theory: Not What They Want, But What You Want Them To Have
The gift giving season is upon us, and at least for myself, the biggest issue is always, "what should I get ____?!" Of course, the commercialized nature of the season imbibes us with the notion that our paramount motivation for the next few monthsis ardently selecting those gifts that, "they will remember/will mean something to them/will make them think fondly of me forever." Often times this task requires far more dedication and thought than is possible for busy people such as ourselves.Let me first proclaim that the prospect of successful gift giving would be an almost non-issue if money were not a question. There is an almost infinite wealth of glorious gift ideas at our disposal if we could assert a large budget on the matter. Alas, we are woefully limited by the meager budgets we often set aside for such tangential luxuries as the giving of thoughtful gifts to others.So what are we do to? Even those loved ones whom which we know so well can present a quandary when it comes to sele

5205G or 5726 on strap?
Hey GuysI'm looking to get my first Patek at years end and I am having a hard time deciding what to go for.I know I want the piece to have some complication and I don't have an annual calendar so I have narrowed it down to these two pieces. Nautilus 5712 was also in the running but I feel it's a love/hate relationship that might bother me later on. Couple questions:Is the 5205g casual enough for jeans and polo shirts? (my typical office attire)How do you feel about the tang buckle as opposed to nautilus deployment?I know neither model is collectable but which do you feel will hold it's value better? Which would be an easier flip if I ever wanted to move it?(I normally buy to keep)Aesthetically which do you prefer?Does the 5205 gold trump steel?Regards Tom
