Have to get this one on my wrist soon again: the Breitling AVI ref. 765 "Digital" ....

.... "Co-Pilot" (wohooow, that is a complicated name) ... from 1953. One of the few which is totally original (including the hands). 


I have a bit of a collection, but this one is fairly high at the top of my favorites. 

Back in July 2013, I sent the watch to Breitling for a movement overhaul (the "digital" disc / minutes counter was stuck) and before I received an estimate for the work, I received a letter from "heritage division" of Breitling indicating that the watch would be of interest to their archives and museum, but - hey - I still own it. 

Cheers, HSTE
