Trust me: your back or wallet will thank you
The USB memory sticks may appear less 'tactile' than paper and cardboard but when you have to lug around 25kg of camera, lenses, flash kits, light tent, laptop computer, as well as all the books and brochures, either your back or your wallet (for excess baggage charges) will thank you to choose the modern tecnology!

The Hidden Gems at Basel 2011 – Oliver and Magnus are dazed & confused at the BaselWorld
Note: The following is prepared jointly by Magnus and Oliver, unless otherwise indicated! In the past Basel was our annual meeting point with fellow watch enthusiast friends and also the place where the much-anticipated collector’s events took place. Yes,...
Thanks a lot Oliver and Magnus for this great post.
We didn't speak a lot about Breitling this year and it is a pity. Like you I was seduced by the TransOcean. Thanks a lot for the great article and the nice pics. Fx
Very interesting perspectives.

Now, that is a Moderator's post, Oliver!
What a post, my friends! Well, I gave up a bit with Breitling. I was and still am a big fan of some Vintage pieces, like the Chrono AVI or the super sexy Super Ocean Time only. The Navitimer? Well, too many variations, which can't compete, IMO, with the V...
The summation . . .
"They are bona-fide tool watches, now with the sticker ‘thoroughbred’ on it. Well done!" . . . says it all. Thanks both, Magnus and Oliver, for sharing your thoughts. This was an enlightening article. Cordially, Art
We are all seated comfortably...
...and eagerly anticipating the next chapter in your story. Thank you both! Cheers, pplater.
Thanks for the report and looking forward to the next part(s)
There's something a little bit cold about a USB key but if it comes packaged with other goodies then that is extra value. Did the Baselworld iphone app come in handy? Regards, Richard.

How unusual: No fish!
Chaps, Thanks for your report. It is highly unusual that a Breitling Basel report has no fish in it! We await the surprises about Kikuno Masahiro, Clerc, Maurice Lacroix and Paul Gerber........ Regards, MTF...
"Kikuno Masahiro, Clerc, Maurice Lacroix and Paul Gerber"...
are you sure they will be featured??? ;-) Magnus
surprisingly nice
Breitlings (not my cup of tea usually) and a very interesting report. Thanks a lot! Andreas
Great write-up!
Thanks for the photos and commentary, gentlemen! I can't wait to learn more about your "hidden gems" of the show! Cheers, Daos
Thanks for the awesome post Oliver and Magnus.
The 40mm Montbrillant 01 looks great. Best, Goh
Really enjoyed this and great photographs!
Thanks, I really enjoyed this post. As a Navitmer Olympus owner, I love the Breitling look and design. I'd love to get hold of one or two of these more recent models when funds allow! But thanks for an informative post. I'm looking forward to more!
