I was waiting for this WOMD! Breitling is the brand that made me fall in love with watches and horology. I still remember the first time I saw a Breitling Superocean Heritage II and its amazing how such a simple design can be so attractive and elegant.

My love for watches n chronographs started with Breitling. Brilliantly explained n makes me so proud of such a rich history this brand carries 👍🏻

Breitling the watch brand that got me into watches....Navitimer classic design and just as instantly recognisable as a Submariner. Advise anyone to pick up Airwolf on a pro 2 bracelet. Such great value at moment for amazing watch. Thanks Roman

Thanks Roman, what an amazing history! I’m buying my birth year watch and it’s the 1968 Breitling Cosmonaute ref 819 which is stunning ❤️ You mentioned the 1962 predecessor made for Astronaut Scott Carpenter making it the first Breitling in space with its quirky 24 hour watch face! Thanks again I absolutely live your videos

Ian's personality is really coming through with the visuals. Hilarious, he's is a good "wing-man"! My first Swiss watch was a steel Breitling Colt (circa 1990, new!). I can't believe you missed the Cosomonaute model and Breitling's quest for the NASA contract with Omega Speedmaster and Rolex Daytona. One of the few times you could put them in the same category at the same time. Little side note to this episode. Great video, I really enjoyed it. Thank you.

Mr. Sharf, great video! Thank you for your content and your inspiring mind. Also really special that you connected with Michael Blakey! The Breitling Avenger II Seawolf was my first grail watch! I really want them to go back to super over-engineered, maskuline and chunky pieces. I'm not so much into the "modern" heritage-vintage-retro style that they and every other brand celebrates so much today! I want more of radical and completely new and really modern designs! And please no Breitlight material. You can't retire from a passion!

When i was a young teen (before the internet), long before i even knew what luxury watches were, i was always drawn to the Navitimer, then in flights i would go through entire magazines only to look for Breitling ads. Rolex and other brands never appealed to me. Since then, when i could afford to buy myself watches i found the beloved brand Seiko, i bought multiple seikos that resemble the Navitimer without even knowing it. Now as an adult i became a Breitling enthusiast that ownes multiple, and i wrote this comment with a Navitimer on my wrist.

The Swiss Air Navitimer just happens to be in my soccer team colors. Very tempting at discount new. It’s a hell of a watch.

Great video Roman, be nice to know about the history of quartz watches. I am thinking about getting a Rolex Oysterquartz ref 17000, it’s rare but not expensive to buy! Would be interesting to know if it could be a sleeper and rocket in value or will it stay in the shadow and just disappear.

Hello, good evening, I hope I'm not disturbing you. I have been looking for information about this collectible Breitling watch, but I haven't found much information about it. What little I found was that it is a watch created by the company in 1986, the "Breitling Navitimer 3300 Jupiter 'Blue Angels' Chronograph L.E." I was just wondering if you could make a video about this excellent watch? Thank you very much.

Had my eye on a couple, but the replies to their Facebook ads in the UK put me off. Loads of people having issues following infrequent wear for a year or 2. Then Breitling accuses them of getting them wet and sand damaged etc and charges around £1600 to repair. This in watches they say can withstand extreme environments! I cannot say for sure what is happening but far too many similar accusations for me to take a chance on!

@RomanSharf

4 жыл бұрын

Always a tuff one to answer, unfortunately a few bad reviews can cause a lot of damage, have not had to many bad watches from breitlings, maybe one or 2 occasions in 15 years myself.

the transition from 8:45 to 8:52 doesn't make sense, you mentioned the 01 movement and then say "it was the chronospace" . The 01 movement is a 70 hour vertical clutch chrono. You skipped the whole part that Tudor selected Breitling movements for its modern chronos, and Breitling selected Tudor movements. Your presentation is like an amazing delicious soup that was incredibly tasty, but there is one hair floating. Even if you take out the hair and have the delicious soup, you can't help but remember there was this hair on it...

Nice video - breitling is one of my favorite brands but to be honest you probably went a bit easy on their management in the 2000's - they kinda lost focus on who brietling was, chased a trend, massively overproduced watches based on whats selling at that minute and ending up dumping stock, burning value and trashing some equity. Still you are right to focus on the core of what breitling is and despite the crap at the edges at heart they are a quality watchmaker. Shame you missed referring to the split seconds chrono they just released in the last few days - really would have fit your narrative.
