Vintage Watches for the week of 10/13/2014

I'll start off the week with my MMF 5513, but will wear a different vintage piece each day this week.

I thought I would have my GP TODAY, but it's freaking Columbus Day, so tomorrow.
"30ish years of martial arts and I've actually had the honor of training lots of LEO, spec ops and even SEAL team 6 on base, fitness training, not martial arts, but still the coolest thing I've done.

Full on egg head corporate job and I fly quite a bit so I'm really looking forward to adding to my collection of TSA friendly self defense tools. I have amcouple tactical pens, but I want to up the game and get into some custom stuff. Been watch obsessed for a while but this seems more fun.

Thanks for letting me play! "

Nice to see people with similar tastes. :) You can never go wrong with 6105s or Benthoses... ;)

Early automatic chrono today. These Chrono-Matics were launched in 1969, this one is from that same year.

Breitling reference 2110, cal. 11.
