I agree, very nice.

On a different note, my Christmas present shopping trip at the weekend didn't quite go to plan... I'm now having to resist wearing my latest purchase until Christmas Day

What did you get?

[neilbauer]

HarrySmash said:

^^ I went for a Chronomat, slate grey with black subdials.

Oh as above, lovely looking watch.

After seeing neilbauers grey face seawolf, i fell in love with grey faced breitlings, I now have my own

Hi I know nothing about Breitlings

Could you tell me the size and the exact model number? It looks really fantastic, do you use it as a daily wearer and find it heavy on the wrist at all?

What's the RRP on these and do Breitlings hold their value?

It's a GMT Chronomat 47mm

Found one here for £7360

And as to holding their value not many things do IMO

Love my Breitling. Some say too big and brash, but still love it.

A very good choice

Yes love the yellow Avenger, if they had a SH when I bought mine I would have had it

Hi Neil. Yellow wouldn't suit all watches, but in the Breitling it's amazing.

Saw my first yellow B when Gordon Ramsey wore one on tele years ago, liked them ever since

Had a yellow seiko a while back but sold it for a profit because it was tiny.

Nice Looks good on that strap, didn't think that strap came in larger sizes I was looking for a black with white sides for my Avenger but the biggest I could find was 20.

I picked this up just before Christmas and fresh from a Breitling service:

Looks lovely. It's nice when they come back from a service, like having a new watch

[neilbauer]

Only wear mine on rubber now and love it. I agree with THE DON the deployment is defiantly the nicest option (I can't afford one) I have a diver pro 2 and 3 the 2 is the smooth one and the 3 has Breitling written in both sides unlike the pro 3 which had it spread over both sides of strap. I have a brushed tang buckle on mine as the case is brushed.

Thanks Don I'm far more envious of you collection long time no banter hope you are well.

Yeah but there aren`t many watches that you could say - if I could only have 1 watch about and you`ve got it!

I`m fine thanks, you?

I'm very good thanks

Just got this superocean heritage chronograph 44:-

I like the hands on this, the big arrow hour hand and the red second hand

[neilbauer]

I have put the titanium bracelet back on after having it on rubber for a few years, feels like a different watch

I have had ago at making my own. But need to finish the buckle side. I bought a vintage croco hand bag from ebay and used the leather from that.

That looks like a fantantastic effort

[neilbauer]

You're not getting rid of the B's are you?

[neilbauer]

I liked the code yellow pity she had to go

[neilbauer]

I like this pic it shows how thick the crystal is.

[neilbauer]

A Superocean a Transocean both very nice

Uncle John said:

Picked it up today. Love it!

Like that colour, is the date at 6 o'clock a new feature as the one above is at 3 o'clock?

[neilbauer]

Uncle John said:

Neil it's the 46mm, the 42 mm has the date at 3.

Robin, my first Breitling as well. Well pleased.

Ah I see very nice, must be mahoosive
