This is probably the most satisfying as it took over a year to find it.

Wow. I'm not much of a Breitling fan, but ... wow. I'm speechless.

Totally trying to find one of these, too...I prefer the cal.15 -- but I'd gladly pull the trigger on a cal.11/12 if I could find a good one.

Nice, nice 'Orange Boy' :)

Thanks Brian.

It's not really an Orange Boy though. The OB is basically a Viceroy with orange accents instead of red. It has Viceroy style hands and a plexi crystal. I'm not sure if it's only Cal 11, or also Cal 12.

Very very clean original condition including the crown and band. Runs within 10s/day after my watchmaker serviced it. I wish I could buy every vintage watch I want in this condition.
This is definitely the Clock of the year!
