Good morning from New York... Seeing as that I have 5 spare minutes, I wanted to take the opportunity to update you guys on how my first Breitling purchase worked out. After much deliberation (and a good amount of dissuading from some of you who were pushing me towards an all polished ling! haha), I decided on the Bentley Motors T with black dial. The 13 days (yes, i counted) it took for the watch to arrive at the AD were the longest of my life! Every time my phone rang, I crossed my fingers in hopes that it would be the call that I was not-so-patiently waiting for! But alas, the piece arrived, and I have been head-over-heels ever since. I find myself crawling home from the hospital after a ridiculously long shift, only to crawl into bed and look / ogle at the watch. *Note: I wish someone would have told me how difficult it is to drive while wearing this watch! Too much time looking at my wrist, not enough looking at the road! So it's official... I have been bit by the bug. Already lining up the next purchase. Although it is price prohibitive, I "unfortunately" tried on a rose gold flying b with bronze dial and MOP accent on a brown croc strap. We make money to spend it, right? Thanks again to everyone who took the time to help me in my decision. I will post pictures as soon as I get the camera battery charged!

Congratulations. Funny how we all seem to have the same feelings and thoughts about our Breitlings. If you ever have to operate on me please take your watch off first, since I can't blame you for being distracted. HaHa. Anyway, that flying B is quite a piece in my opinion also.

congrats on the pic, you can't go wrong with the motors t.

good luck saving up for the flying b that is also a pretty, pretty watch. if i go down the bentley route again, i think i'm leaning towards the mark vi complications 19 . . . or i could just save a whole lot of coin and get the olympus but something about that mark vi just gets my heart beating a little faster.
