Horological Meandering

Breitling Hercules ref. A39363

 

Last week I met a friend who is pilot and has Breitling, of course smile

Hercules model measuring 45 mm.

Big boy with strong presence and heft on wrist.




As a pilot he finds lot of features very useful like

- dual display of measured times,

- measurement under one hour via 60-minute totalizer with center hand which gives excellent readability

- measurement over one hour via single totalizer with two hands combining the hours and minutes, enabling read-off of the time elapsed as one would normally read the time instantly and unmistakably

Inside is Caliber 39 based on ETA 2892 with 42 hrs power reserve.

Another interesting feature is integrated bracelet that gives special flavor to overall appearance.

Not the most common Breitling out there

and model we don't discuss often here if ever so far.

Anyway do you have some Breitlings from your collection to share with us

Cheers
