Hi Neil

Picked this one up recently, got it for an amazing price, less than half RRP, limited edition too, you'll have to excuse the iPhone pic though!



Stef
That is absolutely fantastic, probably near to my perfect Breitling :O

Could you supply a model number so I can hunt and drool? biggrin

I think I heard that the Pro 1 was returning too but then there would be 3!

This Diver Pro 3 starts with raised lettering near the case which then becomes less raised until it becomes slightly indented as it ends at the clasp!



I think the "rubbers" were something like £60 but that's without any clasp / buckle!

The deployment clasp is mucho dinero. I see via the wonders of Google that you can get it with a tang buckle and I WANT as I already have the buckle smile. Is the strap a harder rubber as the pro 2 is very soft and marks very easily.

I managed to find that deployant clasp for about half price due to a tiny hair line scratch on the inside of the clasp otherwise those black steel deployants are stupid money!

Err kind of soft which I prefer because it moves to the shape of a wrist a bit more rather than staying perfectly oval!

I mostly collect vintage, but I do have a few contemporary watches - so here is the Breitling for Bentley Mk VI Complications 19
