Many years ago I had the honour of Professor Tracey welcoming me to the eyrie of the organ loft perched on high - as he explained 'if you can hear the organ from here the congregation have blood running from their ears'. A truly magnificent instrument.
SERVICING - did have breitling some years back, not emergency watch gold navitimer chrono bought from new breitling retailer london - every few years serviced would take to breitling retailer regent st london back then - cost service considering cost of watch sensible 200 pounds approx - comes back with full quality report and testing report and that had a guarantee for two years - as I recall it was sent to switzerland took about two weeks there and back given choice other watch to wear while it was away chose a rolex watch to wear while it was away had to return that obviously - (good dealer) some owners go outside of breitling if you buy from new I wouldnt - why - after ten years sold watch new appartment deposit etc - as I had all paperwork, receipts, box original strap - kept everything - retailer said it added to resale value - like a porsche correct service history done by retailer adds value - on resale - like part of history of the watch - as wore every day very rarely had to rewind it, on service time check was incredibly impressive - only catch central london it did get attention so would wear it upside down on left arm - didnt want to be mugged etc - at night placed under pillow girlfriend thought I was mad - who cares hey ho !!!
Are you sure it is measured “from the lens” as you say and not from the film plane or in the case of digital the plane that the sensor is on, which is often shown via an inscribed line on the camera body?
The Emergency Mission is NOT the first version of the Emergency. The Emergency Mission was developed later for those who like the look of a traditional chronometer. The original Emergency includes the two LCD displays on the watch face. In fact, there are two versions of the original Emergency. The earliest can be identified on the watch face displaying "Breitling" above "Emergency" beneath the hands. The later version has "Breitling" above "Chronometre Emergency" beneath the hands. One should note that both these versions of the Emergency have two antennas the must be deployed as indicated by two caps- one at the upper right, and the one at the lower left. These versions of the Emergency technically have better stated transmission range than the Emergency Mission due to the two antennas. The Emergency Mission, itself has two versions- the earliest having distinctly ridged bases of both chronometer push buttons, on the latter version are smooth chronometer push button bases as on the one you are demonstrating. The Emergency Mission models have only one antenna at the lower right, still providing ample transmission range on 121.5 Mhz. Please note that the above discussion speaks of the pieces themselves, not different dial colors or embellishments. As to the difference in deployment method between "Emergency". "Emergency Mission" and the newest "Emergency II (now renamed back to "Emergency") models, in aviation emergency it is vehemently recommended that the pilot "declare an emergency" to air traffic control or the closest tower or other operating frequency while attempting the off-airport landing. Controlling the aircraft is priority, but one must try to establish "May Day" communication at least including the transmission of basic coordinates. This will establish the immediate need of search and rescue parties. Each aircraft is equipped with an "ELT"- emergency location transmitter that search parties will home in on. The Breitling Emergency series of watches are meant to supplement ELT operation, or be an auxiliary if the ELT is damaged in the landing.
Really dumb question are these older features available on dslr lenses. Yes I'm aware that d850 has a ton of features but I'm interested in spending time shooting with this technique. A way of embracing the old and the new.
So what happens if you pull it your taken hostige or in a car crash or beaten up in an inch of death does it cover that or is it only for air craft accidents
believe any life threatening situation - if in central london easier to call police rather than sending a helicopter from wales - but you dont have to be in a crashed plane in the sahara you could be fell walking, no phone or no phone reception broken leg etc - good question though - but if its set off and its a mistake or a hoax you might have to remortgage your house to pay the fine though 20 -30k fines if a helicopter crew have to travel any distance to find you and its no joke - son dont touch that - doh
not sure of your camera but my understanding is that the distance is measured from the center of the top plate, not the end of the lens. fujifilm cameras have a marking.
