Many watch manufacturers market their timepieces as 'aviators' watches' but very few of them would be bought by any aircrew for the purpose of aeronautical calculations. They are 'designer' pieces and lack the functionality a real aviator would look for in a watch. However, the Breitling Navitimer is a genuine aviators' watch.

Breitling have had a long historical association with the air industry, both military and civilian. When Breitling was first established its main business concern was making precise counters for both scientific and industrial use. Its specialized knowledge of making precision timepieces made it a watchmaker that would be in demand from the then, fledging aviation industry. The relationship between aviation and Breitling watches was officially established when, in 1936, the British Royal Air Force issued Breitling watches to its aircrews.

The Breitling Navitimer is now over 50 years old and is an iconic timepiece. Its design and functionality have changed remarkably little over the years. This chronograph watch can be used to calculate air speed, fuel consumption, rates of descent and the conversion of standard miles into nautical miles amongst other things - all by using the circular slide rule found on the side of the bezel.

The legendary Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute is still manufactured today and is almost identical in terms of movement and styling as it was when it was first made in 1963 for the American astronaut Lt Cmdr Scott Carpenter. He wanted a Navitimer but, because one couldn't tell if it was day or night in space, he wanted a 24 hour version. Incidentally, this was the first Breitling (and perhaps only model) that went into Space.

Each Breitling Cosmonaute watch has a self winding, mechanical movement with a power reserve of 42 hours (approx.) There are a total of 38 jewels running at 28,800 vibrations per hour. The chronograph function has 1/5 second, 30 minutes, 12 hours and fly-back. The case diameter is a minimum 41.5mm and is available in steel, two-tone (steel and gold), 18k gold or rose gold. The crystal is cambered sapphire that is anti-reflective on both sides.

Other, current Navitimer models include the original Navitimer, Navitimer World, Montbrillant, Montbrillant Olympus, Montbrillant Datora and Chrono-Matic.

The World is the largest in the Navitimer collection (case diameter of 46mm), being 10% larger than the original. It consists of 25 jewels and a 2 time-zone, self-winding mechanical movement. The case is available in steel, 18k gold or red gold.

The Navitimer Montbrillant collection owes its name from the original location of the Breitling watch factory. It was on this site that the 'return-to-zero' movement and the circular slide-rule were first designed and manufactured. To commemorate, these watches are little more ornate; hands and hour markers are embellished in gold.

The Chrono-Matic Breitling watch was first developed in 1969 - Breitling created the Caliber II, the World's for self-winding chronograph movement. The watch was easily distinguishable by the placement of the crown on the left-hand-side of the casing. These watches still place the crown of the left-side. The movement has 38 jewels and each watch has a case diameter of 44mm which is available in either steel or 18k gold.

While modern technology has done away with the need for mechanical aviation watches there are those who still appreciate the sophisticated movements of these watches but for those that do, the Navitimer watch from Breitling will definitely appeal.

Invicta Lupah Watch

The Invicta Lupah Watch Collection is an expressive, artistic, and genuinely stylish timepiece. Maintaining Swiss movement, chronograph functionality, and strong composition; the Invicta Lupah adds a unique fashion mantle, appealing to the fun and playful side of watch enthusiasts.

Lupah watches come in two design variations: one executed in rectangular tonneau shape, another in classic round form. Most models, including Dragon Lupah, Lupah Grand, Classic, and Baby Lupah belong to the former type, Diver Steel division belongs to the latter.

Invicta Lupah is a rare collection that fearlessly paints its items with pure, bright color. Saturated and deep red, blue, and yellow hues soak the straps and the dials, lending the the watches a fresh, nature-inspired look. Even black seems unusually warm, evoking turf and spring growth.

Invicta Lupah Design

Appearance becomes the main characteristic distinguishing Lupah from other Invicta lines. While many Invicta timers contain a Swiss made chronograph caliber, only Lupah operates the function with globular push buttons; many show a set of Arabic numeral on the dial, but only Lupah decorates them with stylish Art Deco flourishes. In other words, this watch wants to look good on display, and Invicta has done all they can to assist it.

The Invicta Baby Lupah presents a miniature version of the standard tonneau configuration; the 29 mm diameter case (regular size veers between 43 and 51 mm) renders these models suitable for kids, and ladies willing to test Invicta's fashion sensitivities. An interesting distinction in the Baby Lupah category relegates the seconds hand from central position to a subdial at six o;clock.

Steel Diver watches depart from the sleek and light vision of their rectangular counterparts, opting for a straightforward round dial, enveloped in solid stainless steel, and lots of it. In particular, the five-row brick bracelet produces an effect of muscular solidity. A colored aluminum plate on the face adds a necessary touch of finesse.

Lupah Watch Materials

Avant-garde design is not the only department where Lupah deploys innovation. The spec list reveals a similar trend in the materials composition. Lupah straps feature high-tech synthetic fibers, the dials incorporate carbon fiber, while the case, in some of the watches, carries a layer of black ionic plating.

These materials not only enhance the durability of the watch, they also give it new textures, visual as well as tactile. They elevate Lupah to the Olympus of the watch industry, usually the dwelling place of exclusively high-end, and often high priced brands and collections.

Lupah Watch Movements

Professional Swiss chronograph engineering stands out as the most common movement in this line. Intricate split-seconds chronograph caliber propels Classic and Grand variations, which, not surprisingly, feature a pair of wings above the logo: the split-seconds function is particularly useful for pilots (though car racers will appreciate it as well). One final complication Invicta has equipped the Lupah with is the small date digital aperture surfaces at twelve or four o'clock, quietly but confidently complementing the dial interface.

Olympus camera FE-210 has black mark on screen?

After returning from Darwin where camera was used last (olympus FE-210) and working perfectly, I turned camera on and the screen has a black blob like a leaf in left bottom corner plus some horizontal and vertical lines over screen no picture at all. Maybe heat in darwin has fused screen, Any solution?? Was going to try hair dryer on camera to tryinfusing or perhaps pit in fridge??
Not sure what to do?

Sounds like you may have damaged your LCD.
Replacements are available but are more than half the cost of a new camera. You may be able to find an old camera for parts and change it out. Take it into a camera shop to see if they have any ideas.
