Breitling Japan limited editions

You guys have probably seen these, but just in case, there are a couple of new
Breitling limited editions being released. They are the Breitling Japan Superocean
Chrono Black LE, and the Breitling Japan Chronomat 44 MOP. A portion of the
revenue from these watches will go to the Japanese Red Cross to help in the
reconstruction in Japan after the earthquakes, and Tsunamis. Found these over
at OceanicTime from TLex. Here are the links for you. ..Enjoy !

I did see those Tom. Love both versions...... Very Nice of Breitling to give support to Japan. I have to wonder though, if it is Japan that is suffering, why not sell to countries outside of Japan instead of to the folk who were hit the hardest????????

Some marketing guy had the brainchild idea to combine both facts: Japanese wealthy love European watches and the Tsunami victims and world sympathy for that area north of Tokyo. Wealthy Japanese love brand products from foreign countries...Adidas, German cars, Euro watches.....profit is the bottom line, and Japan is still a country of lots of expendable income!

Me too Dave. Everything about the watch is nice ! From that case, and
incredible dial, to the amazing bezel, and bracelet. Even has a cool crown,
along with pushers come to think of it.
