Introducing The Hamilton Pan Europ, Vintage Inspired And Budget Friendly (Details & Pricing)
Back in 1971, Hamilton introduced the Pan Europ, one of the first automatic chronographs on the market (using the famous chrono-matic / Calibre 11 movement). Here we have a new non-chronograph watch inspired by that original design and bearing the Pan Europ name. The new Pan Europ still takes advantage of the cushion case shape and the bright colors but offers an overall simpler package. That it's relatively light on the wallet only adds to the appeal.The new Pan Europ is housed in a distinctive 42mm cushion case that looks just like what you'd find with many of the classic 70s racing chronographs. The integrated lugs are short and thick and it looks like the top of the case is brushed with polished bevels and edges. The aluminum bezel insert is marked in 15 minute increments with single minutes marked from 0 to 15 like what you might find on a dive watch. 2 OF 2 There are two dial color choices, one blue and the other grey. Both feature bright white Superluminova

Just because...
Even though 2.5 years have passed since I got the 15300, my love for it is definitely still there...

vintage breitling: did i goof?
hi guys!on a recent bus trip to milan, i was passing by a window shop and saw about 15 - 20 vintage high end watches 50 + yrs old... including Rolex, Vacheron Constantin, Ulysse Nardin, Breitling, Omega, etcthe shop was in a 'non touristy' part of town, in a pretty quiet section of town actually...i was intrigued...i went inside to discover that it was actually a service center (therefore, not primarily sales oriented) and the technician there, would buy old watches from his customers and resellwell.... despite not knowing much (i am new to the watch fixation...) ... i took the chance and bought one... he told me it is a breitling self winding chrongraph from year 1960- also, gave me a 1 yr guarantee of his owni thought it was beautiful it is much nicer than the pics i'm attaching (not very talented with the camera )i paid 1200 euro for it (not at all an insignificant amount, for me) it was totally an impulsive buyshould i regret it? does it look fake? not worth the money i paid? any
