Baselworld 2015: The Breitling Chronoliner Takes Flight
Breitling looks to be emphasizing its history in 2015, with a number of watches that highlight the brand’s heritage in tool watches and precision timing devices. Sometimes that means revamping or reissuing classic models �C one of which we’ve recently discussed here. But it can also mean introducing a new line that harks back to vintage design elements and a classic functionality. In that vein, Breitling gives us a new collection: the Breitling Chronoliner.The Breitling Chronoliner is intended as a pilots’ watch, but maybe not how you’d think of that category most often. Whereas pilots’ watches today are usually designed to emphasize the more technical aspects of aviation, Breitling links the Chronoliner to the golden age of flight and the expansion of commercial air travel in the middle of the 20th century. In a statement, the brand dubs it “the authentic flight captain’s watch.” Breitling also says the watch was inspired by models of the

Swatch Group Chairman Wants to Stop Deliveries to Competitors
Reuters is reporting that in a recent interview published in the Swiss daily l’agefi, Swatch Group Chairman Nicolas Hayek said the group plans to stop selling watch parts to other brands. Swatch Group supplies movements and crucial components to many brands through its ETA unit. “We no longer intend to produce or deliver to third-party watchmakers,” Hayek was quoted as saying. Hayek continued “Swatch Group could cope very well without [selling parts to other watchmakers]. It only accounts for sales of around 300 or 400 million Swiss francs, which is some 7 or 8 percent of total sales. The loss will be small compared to all the advantages we will get back.”Hayek said Swatch Group already had a team in place to discuss stopping delivery and production with Switzerland’s Competition Commission (COMCO). COMCO spokesman Patrik Ducrey said Swatch Group had not yet contacted the body.Swatch Group announced on September 15, 2009 that COMCO had opened a new

First Breitling for me
Hello guys,Finally wanted to complete my chrono collection with a vintage Breitling from the 70'sIMG_0735.jpg

Pam113
Never been a Panerai guy. Always liked them from afar but do not understand their models etc. I will do more research tonight. But I was offered this particular watch today at what appears to be a decent price. Just really wondering if it is at all desirable outside of I like the look. In really good shape. Money seems good according to C24. Complete set box etc. On the rubber PAM strap and comes with a PAM leather strap and a PAM croc strap included. Says number 167/800 on the back. Dealer was asking $3400. Fair?? No?? Not a desirable watch to most?? Opinions in general on this one as I see very few white dials. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pam320 Authentic?
So I just received my first Panerai which is the pam320 from Jomashop and I still have doubts about the authenticity without a warranty card. Anyone else here bought from Jomashop? I have to remove the serial no so I have to blur it out. Serial No. matches the box, not sure if it matters. Thanks.
