I purchased my first Ling, a CA in October...two months later I picked up my Super Avenger. Once you get your first, you just want to get another. Alot of folks here are the same. Congrats on your Ling! Jim |

Chance...you hit that right on the head. I thought I was satisfied with my first, but after being on the forum for awhile, led me to my SA! Now, like I posted before, I am on Ling probation.

Hell Yes, I want more Lings, I'm just waiting for them to come out with something new to get. The Bentley Motors and the SA do the job for me for variety but I would like a 2 tone like an Evo if there was one a little bigger and eventually I want and all Gold Bentley. My guess is that at any time they could come out with something that all Full Ling Club members will just have to have. |

It's impossible to survive with only 1 Ling, of this, I am certain. |

Hey guys and gals, new to the forum here, but just wanted to say that this was also true in my case. I had purchased a Super Ocean, then went back about 3 months later and got a black faced Navitimer on a black leather strap. Its a comfortable watch up here during New England falls and winters, but I much prefer a bracelet. My next purchase is most likely going to be an Avenger Skyland on a bracelet. I was drooling over it on their website, and after seeing some of the pics you guys have posted I am completely sold on it, just trying to figure out what color to get. |

I suppose I'm a bit different in that respect. My first Breitling was Colt, in the early 90's. In 1997, I traded it up to a SuperOcean, which I have had since then. I just had a complete service done on it, and it looks like new. The PRO I strap did finally give out, unable to be repaired, but that is after 10 years. I wore that watch every single day! A couple of weeks ago, I got a new Steelfish, black dial, with PRO II brushed bracelet. What a looker! Now, I am contemplating a new Skyland Avenger Blacksteel, but I may have to hurry before it's sold. I guess I am now falling into the pattern. If it was not for budget constraints, I guess I would likely have one or two more. Cheers, Carl |

My next Breitling will be the Super Avenger. I purchased my Navi-World in late September 2007. As soon as my wife lifts the sanctions, I'm going to be shopping hard and heavy. ~Brian |

I wonder if Breitling ownership follows the 80/20 rule... i.e. 20% of Breitling owners hold 80% of the watches. I doubt it is this extreme, but its an interesting thought. I am thinking the Silver dial Navi is gonna be my next score... |

I have no chance of lasting three years before I get a second one. Darnit. I'm just another statistic.
