Hello,

I'm Jack , 35 years from the Netherlands.

After a bumpy ride flipping watches

Rolex Datejust 16030
Rolex Datejust 6605
Omega Speedmaster Reduced "Cart series"
Rolex Datejust 116200
Rolex Datejust 16014
Rolex Explorer II 16570
Rolex Datejust 16200

First I bought a Seiko Arctura Chrono, I am going to South America this summer for about six weeks, didn't want to take any risk with a watch, It is surprisingly accurate, within 1 second a month.

It was time for me to look for a compromise between rugged, GMT, Chrono and a little stylish.
I decided to buy a Breitling Chronomat Longitude Chronometer A23048 in the completely brushed finish.

The lume is like Radio-active, it glows like a torch.
The bracelet is really comfortable though rather nasty to size when never handled before.
The saphire is crazy, when seen from upfront it seems there's no saphire at all, just a dial.

Everything on this watch feels firm and sturdy though it's a little high on the wrist.

Now I am going to enjoy it, here's a little picture of it, next few days i'll make some sweet wrist shots.

For now I am really satisfied with the cost/feel ratio

Yes the Breitling double-sided AR is one of the best out there IMO. That's a real classic beauty you have there. Congratulations! :thumbsup:

PS - I'm glad you aligned that bezel from the first set of pictures! :wink: :lol:
