Just saw this, but did you guys hear about it?

Evidently Breitling has bought Universal Geneve. A watch company that was
founded in 1894, and who had groundbreaking designs like with the Tri-Compax,
as well as the Aero-Compax, Polerouter, and who even created cool movements
like the micro-rotor.

Since 1989 the brand has been owned by Hong Kong based Stelux Group. But
now Breitling will be taking over the reigns. So maybe we will see more of their
classic watches reborn in new, and exciting ways. What do you think? Or what
are your thoughts?
