I have seen this model only a couple of times. What year/s was it produced and what is the size? It is a great looking watch. IMO the GMT Steelfish is perfection defined!

Nice pick up, and while we've seen pictures on here before, I think this is the first one actually owned by a forum member. :thumbsup:

I think you're right - there were a couple on eBay a little while back but don't think anyone here bought one.

Great looking watch. My steelfish is jealous.

By the looks of the color of the face, it appears to be a true white, as opposed to a more cream colored "white" on the regular steelfish.

Or is it just the pic?

I almost bought one of those on the 'Bay about 6 months ago. The only reason I didn't was because it was the original 42mm instead of 44mm. This dates it to 2005 I believe. Oh, how I wish they had done the GMT in the 44mm version, too!

It is White, White.
BTW, need to post some pics of my M1's
I have two whites, but one is more cream and one is white.

This is 42mm, but it wears big for 42mm. the case is hefty and it is white (which helps on appearance size)

It would be nice if Breitling did a few more GMT watches
maybe the next llimited edition...speaking of which. i bought the bronze 125th.
i will post a pic when i get time. interesting bracelet, it does not fit in the little breitling travel case that comes standard in the box set
like having handcuffs on (not that i would know)
