These look very Breitling Top Time-ish. This is one of the 810 variations from around 1964

Yes, and why not?

So actually no, then?

So actually no. I stand corrected. :oops:

I hadn't read the website but knew Dan Henry is a USA Company and therefore expected the watches to ship from there.

Better value than I thought. Image

The man himself is actually from Brazil, not sure where his company is based though.

I ordered a silver faced panda no-date as well, been searching for a reasonably priced sub-40mm chrono for ages and looking forward to this release for a while. The 19mm lug width is a minor downside as I can't use my existing straps but luckily it comes with a bracelet AND a strap, and luckily cheapestnatostraps had some 19mm racing leather straps on clearance sale.

Correct, Dan Henry (the man) is Brazilian and lives there. I assume, because I can't find any info to the contrary, that Dan Henry Watches is also based in Brazil.

The watches are made in China. He discussed the challenges of this in his interview with Worn & Wound last year. (https://wornandwound.com/wornwound-podc ... y-watches/)

There are distribution centers in Europe (therefore no tax for EU residents), USA and the far east.
