I am sorry but that looks really cheap. I thought it was a g-shock at first glance. Loving the sky dweller though. Amazing watch.

WOOOOF that's nice! And they are discontinuing the arabic/roman numeral dials on sky-dwellers so yours is going to become a classic.

It's my fave day to day watch alongside the 18k sub with sunburst dial.

Thank you. I just saw it's discontinued now. The new face with batons does nothing for me in comparison.

Just ordered the new rose gold GMT from Baselworld, appeals to me quite a lot.

Each to their own, that's what make watches fun! Wouldn't be much good if we all had on the same watches

Variety is the spice of life

Indeed, apologies if I offended that was not my intention but re-reading I can see how it would seem that way.

I'm not sure what RRP was, however they retail for around £40k if you can find one nowadays.

New purchase as of yesterday (and after a long wait for it to come in):

I presume that's a 46? Or are you just tiny? : )

46 indeed.

I had a 47mm Pilot watch that I didn't get on with, and I fear a 46 SOH will be too big for me, so I'm holding out for a blue 42 at the right price...

Not seen the brown one before. The blue one is quite bright, shiny and perhaps a bit blingy (in true Breitling tradition ). Is the brown a bit more subdued?

I don't have huge wrists, but was surprised how well it wears for a big watch. Not had a 46 before, but doubt I would go beyond it in terms of size. For comparison, I tried a Deep Sea, and I think this wears a lot better on my wrist.

I have never been a big fan of Breitling due to over fussy and over bright styles. This one is subdued for sure, and something that I hope will age very gracefully and is not too flashy. From what I am aware, the brown (or Copperhead Bronze as officially named) was a short run model. I put my name down based on online information, and when I saw it, it did not disappoint. Photos don't really do justice. I considered other colours, but the blue was a bit too flash for me, and black was too much like what I have already. Wanted something different, and I found it. They do a rose gold and black one too, but I fear that would date/age too quick for my tastes.

Hanging out in Amsterdam so something appropriate.

Did they make you purchase an extra seat to get that thing over there?!

Hanging out of what exactly, in Amsterdam?

Have a great weekend, all

After heinous quantities of drugs I can imagine that starting to look right.
