Cleared for Takeoff: The Breitling Emergency II Lands at U.S. Retailers This Summer
Breitling introduced the Emergency II �� successor to the wildly popular Breitling Emergency, and the first-ever watch with?a dual-frequency locator beacon �� at Baselworld 2013. However, the watch’s planned U.S. retail release has been stalled for nearly two years awaiting approval from the FCC, which regulates the airwaves over which its built-in rescue signal operates. On June 23, pilots, sailors, and other adventurers who have patiently waited for the chance to purchase the Emergency II received good news. At a press conference aboard the U.S.S. Intrepid Air and Space Museum in New York, co-hosted by pilot, astronaut and Breitling brand ambassador Mark Kelly, Breitling announced that the government red tape had finally been cut: the company received its necessary FCC waiver, and the Breitling Emergency II would finally be available at retail on July 1. Here’s what you need to know about this world’s-first timepiece.The original Breitling Emergency, introduced in 199

Rolex guys opinion on Breitling Navitimer.
Hi Guys,I know there's a Breitling section on the forum but since I want to hear the Rolex guys opinion I think this is the right section for this thread.I'm not a fan of Breitling in general but I do like the Navitimer 01, I know Breitlings resale is bad and that they can be had with good discounts,A good friend that works at an AD is offering me 3 different Breitlings models at 50% off retail,actually about 45% because it's a 50% of the price of the head plus the strap I choose at retail, and one of the models is the Navitimer 01.What do you guys think is a 50% off a brand new Navitimer a good deal?, the model they have on sale is the 43mm the 46 is not on sale.How's the quality of the Breitlings deployment buckle ?I have both options , deployment or tang on both calf and Croc, the calf with tang being the cheapest.TIA.

I would buy this in a hearbeat
Personally, I don't condone Frankenwatches, but this .flickr/photos/shaneli...7624117378632/ mod has me salivating. If OMEGA made this, there is virtually no price that I wouldn't pay for one.

Let's talk about the new perpetual (5327)
Basel 2016 was rather uneventful for this poor soul. 5170R is quite a looker and the much talked about 5930 is interesting, but not much else. The strange decision to keep the 5140 in Platinum while introducing the new perpetual reference 5327 seems a little bizzare. I'm personally most curious about seeing the 5327 in person. It is the successor to the 5140 and 3940, the daily wear perpetual. 5327R_001.pngMy thoughts are as follows. Curious to hear yours.1. Bringing breguet's to the masses! And to men's watches.2. I like they fixed the dates on the dial. 3. The breguet's are interesting but do they clutter the dial too much? Will it sell more / to a younger crowd (this old 30-something year old has been trending to more classic watches....).4. I like the look of the rose and yellow gold on the lacquer dial. The blue, not so much. It will kill the market for the 5140P blue dial I imagine. 5. 240 movement in a 39mm case?? Will this work/look good? I suppose patek has been recycling mo
