acceldebt,
I'm not sure yet, but the Diamond Bezel is supposed to be delivered today via Fedex - you will have pictures if that's the case! I really want the diamond bezel since i have always wanted a diamond breitling and i dont like the way the diamond bezels look on the Bentley's. I will likely be saving up for the Motors shortly here, as I am looking to purchase a pair of White and Gold flat really wide curb chain necklaces first... list price on these chains are around $1875 each.. but I will get a heavy discount hopefully :shock: Motors will be next on the list after that unless I run across a killer deal on one.

OK Admin,

I will let you off the hook on this for now because I like diamond bezels too but this is on the condition that you help me pressure Sportback into getting a Zenith. He's loaded with cash so it's only right that he be the first one to take one for the team and get the Zenith so he can fill us in on how it is. Plus he likes black steel anyway so he is the right Zenith Guinea Pig.

Nice watch chronomatter!!! - and prompt pictures too, you should fit in quite well :D

Think I might try the second hand thing on my CA, its always bugged me a bit that the second hand dosnt work.

Been off the forum for a few days, had a few busy days before I go on holiday (erm sorry - vacation) so i'll be of the forum for 2 weeks.

All this talk of diamond bezels - I thought it might be a cool addition for my CA, for those special occassions, but i've never seen one. Has anyone else? Or would it be something strange, like diamonds cant be fitted to titanium?

Or, (and I'll say it before Ling man does) do CA owners not deserve diamonds, on the basis that their watches arnt shiney enough to start with :D

I think diamond bezels are very nice - for hairdressers...

Sorry! (But it got a reaction!! I'm still a bit doubtful about the guy from Florida that goes around strangling lizards and then making them into shoes though...)

I think possibly the only real use for a diamond bezel is to cut nice circular holes in sheets of glass...

Sportback,

I can see that you are going to need more than a Bentley to achieve true rehabilitation from being a "camping in the woods guy". These are discouraging comments coming from an Englishman. Over in England on St. James St. They have a mens clothing store called John Lobb. If you want to see the finest Alligator shoes in the world go there. They have some called "Norwegian Slippers" that are in the same league as your new Whole Ling. Now we have covered the degradation of wearing leather and Croco bands on Lings but I think you are about to really cross the line into true Ling Degradation if you are going to wear that Black Steel Avenger Skyland with not just a leather or Croco band but a RUBBER BAND. Seriously now RUBBER ? on a Ling. I am available to provide the intensive counseling you require. Now Admin will see that my offer of forming the Non Profit service for degraded Ling rehabilitation was not so far fetched.

well as it happens it really bugs me to think that Breitling would even sell a watch with a rubber strap - if I promise not to wear it and just ever so occaisionally look at it thru the door of a display case, would that be ok? :wink:

I do have to admit that I could not even fathom wearing a Breitling with a rubber strap, but if I was a diver, yeah I would probably wear one... ONLY when i was diving. I think diamond bezel on a blacksteel would look sweet!
