The Breitling Watch Source Forums

At 18, I knew I wanted a Breitling. My interest in joining the Air Force pretty much sealed that desire. After much research, the Aerospace appealed to me the most.

It has a combination of being lightweight and comfortable, yet still retaining the uniqueness found in Breiling watches. So the Aerospace it would be.

After much more research into the model, I found that Breitling made special edition versions of their watches, and issued them to the military. Of all the Ltd Ed ones that I discovered to exist, the British Aerospace Harrier version was the one I wanted.

So three years later, and plenty of searching and patience, I bought one..

A blurry one


Compared to the thickness of an Omega Seamaster Professional Chrono....it's a very thin watch!!





Thank you for reading the thread

Cool watch! But just wanted to point out.. the special editions aren't issued to military necessarily... They can be made by anyone requesting 50 or more units. It just happens that the military likes Breitling watches You'll see lots of interesting special editions out there.. promotional ones like the American Airlines one too.

Dear James.

Very good looking Aerospace you got !

I like military watches as well.
I joined in 1999/2000 a UN-Mission in my business.
It was an exiting expirience.
I found a Breitling SuperOcean that remembers me to this time.

Have fun with your Sea Harrier.

edit:
@Admin:
If James have all the papers this could be a real watch for Sea Harrier Staff.
I know that Breitling often create Limited Editions like this.
