Some 18 mounts ago I found my longed for chrono-matic 24 h.

In these 18 mounts my glycine airman vintage v had some 18 days
of wrist time.

For the rest I just couldn't part with this great watch.
Sometimes I just took it with me to bed.
For me it's one of the best 24 hour watches Breitling ever made.
Although they probably will manage to surprise me in the nearby future. (for instants with the unitime or toptime 24 h)

Every now and than I search the net for the chrono-matic 24 h.
Just to keep track so to say.
Sunday I found some awful sites that sell a fake version of this
great Breitling. On first glance I thought they used a picture of the real version to sell some crappy made fake Breitling
but when studying it some more I noticed it was a "real" fake! (bad B logo, red date, no part of the number 24 hour,
strange triangle shape at 12, black on hands etc.)

They ask 200 dollar for the watch so it probably isn't that great when you have it up close.
The fake will have a lifespan of 18 months and you sure won't where it in bed.
One also has to wonder if it is really a 24 hour watch!!
I'm glad I have the real thing!
