I stumbled across your video review of the replica Steelfish a few months ago. I was intrigued so did some research and got a blue dial/pro II and white dial/leather strap. I went to a Breitling AD, feeling cocky and all, and said, "Hey this watch has a defect." I let them examine it and they said it was fine. I told them it was a replica and was ready for a good laugh when I looked at the display of real Breitlings in the case below. Uhg.

Well in the last 2 months I've taken possesion of 4 (blue dial-white sub-dial Chrono Superocean, white dial-blue sub dial Chrono superocean, black dial Chono Superocean, and the new black dial Cockpit w/ pilot bracelet and brown croc strap) and am waiting delivery of black Heritage 46, blue dial Steelfish w/proII, black dial steelfish with diver I and leather straps, and Chronomat Evo two tone/black dial.

I guess my daughter will have to enroll at a community College next year. I hope Breitling GIVES you watches!

Oh, and I couldn't be more delighted with the watches I have so far. :lingsrock:

LOL! way too funny. I feel buying a replica can be a great way to "test drive" a watch. I "tried" a few Rolexes a while back and i'm glad I did. I decided they were not for me.

I'm not proud of supporting the replica market but I do use them before a $$$$$ purchase.

It's not quite clear to me whether all those watches you listed there are also replicas (?)

Nope, not replicas, genuines - that's why this site has cost me soooo much dinero and I hope the creater of the site gets comped an occasional watch.

Yes I love the Chrono Superoceans. I have "little skinny girl wrists" and the CSO is the perfect fit. Which begs the question, "Why the Heritage 46?" Well it's profile is thin enough and the lugs are shaped just right to make it "passable" on my wrist, barely.

Also I'm left handed and wear my watches on my right wrist - so a really thick Chrono just looks wrong - I can't carry it off. Love the Skyland. but just can't carry it off, even with a leather strap which helps, but not enough. The profiles of the Evolution and the CSO work though.

And yes, "my guy" Andre is on my speed dial. I will soon be starting a 12 step group - Breitling Anonymous. Step 1 - Admitted I was powerless over Breitlings - that my checking account is unmanagable.

I can't condone buying the fake, but if it's led you from the darkness (of fakery) into the light (of genuineness), then I guess that's a very good thing!

Congrats on the (genuine) purchases and welcome aboard here too. :thumbsup:
