My great-grandfathers Breitling Cadette Chronograph 1185

Hi everybody,

I recently received my great-grandfathers Breitling Cadette 1185 which was gifted to him in the 1950s for his 70th birthday.

Its in pretty good shape and wears very comfortable! I do plan on changing the bracelet for a leather strap which should give the old bracelet a well deserved rest and make the watch look a bit more up to date.

The watch will at some point need some restoration, but I think it looks really modern for a 1950s watch and I love the design - what do you guys think?

Best wishes to you all!
