My new to me 2011 Planet Ocean.
I popped my Chrono24 cherry with this.
Now tucked away until Crimbo

Superb choice 2500"d" as well for that model year, the PO2500 is the diver to have IMO.

Still loving the colour. Think it looks better on nato than bracelet

It's easy to overlook this one in the box, but it's always lovely when I wear it. Breitling get a hard time, but the gen 1 SOH in 42 is such a nice thing. Simple 3 hander with a date, and the finishing is great.

Now we're talking. These are really nicely done watches in my view. I think it's a brand that'll take off soon - they definitely punch above their weight. Great choice.

Agreed. In general I find Breitlings to be a bit 'garish' or fussy but that's one I would buy.

Been resisting phoning up Harrods to get out on the list. From Tudor I got a ETA BBN and Ranger and my brother has a GMT. Think a Harrods would be great addition to the family...

[smithyithy]

What's the typical wait for a Harrods these days?

For a long time this was something I wanted but couldn't really afford. By the time I could afford it the green bezel had been discontinued and I had to find one second hand.
I'm now buying and selling more expensive pieces, but I wanted this for so long I don't think I'd part with it. Same for my steel bezel Tag F1, which I bought when I got my first manager job in my 20s. Happy memories!

Felt compelled to dig out a pic of the Tag, following on from my last post. It'll go to my godson in a few years (if he wants it!)

Hard to tell. Some have been waiting for about 6 months. But apparently if you're a regular customer you can sometimes get one without even being on list. Think they've had a lot of overseas interest in them and people phoning / emailing to be put on the list, but a lot of people not showing up to pick up. Think once you're told your one is in you have 7 days to show up before they let someone else have it.

Ah okay, sounds similar to the GMT when I picked mine up to be honest.

They turn up every 10 minutes or so, but always two together for some reason.
