You wouldn’t believe it lad, I was a bike messenger in Chicago from 90-00, always watched Seinfeld on a Thursday, he had a breitling and a Klein mtb! Got hit by a drunk, got a payout, bought a Klein and a breitling of a watch guy I was delivering packages for. The stores still there called Howard Frum on Wabash. Used to ride with the watch for luck, all over the world, had it worked on by some real different folk so a lot of parts were not perfect. A few years ago was talking to a mate that’s mad on watches, he took it and sent it to Breitling, came back beautiful and still lucky, I don’t ride with it anymore the same lad got me a Rolex last year so I ride with that bit fussy though and the jubilee bracelet gets dirty on a building site
