Hello again all. I'm currently having fits! My wife ordered me something and today the postman deliver a pack with a USPS stamp and Panatime as the sender. So I know it's a strap(s) for my B for Bentley but she won't let me open it and now it's been hidden.

Did she go deployant or tang? Ostrich, shark, alligator or calf? How many? What colours? Now OCD is so bad I'll have to get to the boutique for strap boxes and end pins! WWWHHHHYYYYYY! Lol

Rant over hope your all well pics to follow.... Eventually

Out of interest, what do breitling charge for a service? I've got a 6.75 I might service. The only time I sent it to them (accidentally left the crown open and filled it with water and suntan lotion) they did the work free as a gesture of good will! Not really sure why, though I suspect maybe they noticed there was a problem with the seal, or just because it took over 2 months!

Have fun out the Neil. I'll be in Barca next week but no time to see sights or the Boutique frown Ive got a 2 month wait to see what the straps are and its hurting but in 21 days our first child should be with us so my attentions may be elsewhere anyhow. (Unless I use my BforB to work out how much sleep Ive had... or NOT had)

Both look good, looks brown to me.
Hi Niel hows things mate, any more Breitling Adventures? Just had 1st child 10 days ago so mine may be fewer and further between but on the plus side I managed to find a Red 24mm Strap for my BforB Motors T. Its Genuine Shark Skin so loving the look and its going to compliment the TVRs interior beautifully (Now its just to have the baby seat retrimmed to match... lol)

Love the emergency but think the Bentley is a bit of a Marmite watch.

So my bday was yesterday and I finally found out. My pressie (one of them) was a Navy Blue Shark skin strap for my Motors T

Also managed to find an original 24mm Motors T speed bracelet at a great price and should be with me this week!
