I tried the latest emergency on few months ago..
very comfortable on the wrist. Looks great too! However, the boutique do not allow me to buy the watch! They insisted I must show them a local ID since this watch in some countries are not legal.
Cheers.

Just a curious watch - Breitling Emergency Titanium E56121.1
Team, I was alway curious about this piece. It claims that, in case of a true emergency you can unscrew two anthenas and it transmits an emergency code (I read that uses an obsolete frequency, but who cares?). I don't dare to try but is a curious piece th...
Great buy Nilo!
I don’t own the watch, but I appreciate its “purity” in being a “tool” watch and have reserved a spot for it in my target watch collection. Also, the current emergency is something like 63mm... It seems to have great history about people actually being re...
Thank you ...
About to complete the look, I don't think that I will go for that. I'm on a trimming collection mood. Cheers, Nilo
The frequency used to be very much correct when I was still flying :)
Great addition, Nilo! Definitely a fit for purpose piece and I hope Breitling returns to this spirit of innovation. Maybe with the odd model under 42mm as well
I truly hope that Kern will bring back Breitling to the proper tracks ...
At least, he removed the pin-up! Cheers, Nilo
He seems to listen to you...
Maybe a 40mm date free chronograph without the date with a B-01 movement and in a Transocean design next?
Nice watch and looks great on your wrist. It looks in excellent condition.
They are very much like the Aerospace model but with the interesting complication of the emergency signal. Be careful not to fiddle about with the antenna bit when you’ve had a few drinks on New Years’ Eve. Regards Kev.
It arrived complete ...
On a sort of a suitcase that contains everything, including a VCR tape (that I cannot play). Cheers, Nilo
When I was a teenager, this Breitling was the top of the awesomeness for me. The possibility to be saved by your watch was something almost unreal
To be honest with you, I won’t go for it today (my tastes have slightly evolved I think) but I’ll put it on my wrist with a true great pleasure during a walk in the mountains for instance. Best wishes Alkiro
If you pull it it will cost you like $ 10.000 plus
Helicopters and rescue teams don’t come cheap
Indeed!
Can you imagine if they send an aircraft carrier after you? Wonder how much the gas for THAT thing would cost! That said, I was told when I got mine “If it’s a legit rescue, you’ll get a new watch and you won’t have to pay for the helicopters and rescue t...
