I just ordered the Avenger Seawolf Chrono Blacksteel as my first Breitling timepeice, the start of my collection. I am 23 years old and my friends, family, girlfriend and pretty much everyone I know thinks I am crazy for spending that kind of money on a watch. Obviously I disagree!! Not only have I always wanted a Breitling, but over the past year I have become quite successful and the watch symbolizes this time in my life. Anyways, I was just wondering how old were you when you purchased your first luxury timepiece and what was the motivating factor behind it? |

I was 28 when I acquired my first Breitling. It was long long overdue. After living overseas for 2 years I had basically hummed hawed for another 2 years deciding what to get. Best decision I ever made and I haven't looked back! |

37. I wanted one when I was 32 and never bought it. I finally talked myself into it. Funny how I now have 5 just three years later. Be careful, once the itch has been scratched, the seal is broken! R/ |

57 for me! Wanted one for years but could not justify spending that much on a watch so bought about 40 seiko's, citizens, Victorianox etc to satisfy the "itch". Thrilled with my purchase, but got a great deal from Costco. It is a Breitling Chrono Cockpit older style - 2008. Watched it drop over the course of 8 months from its original price of $4,999 to 3,999 to 2,999 and then finally grabbed it the day it dropped to 1,999.00. Still a lot of money to spend for a watch but for me, as a long time watch fanatic, it feels right and Ilove wearing it. I only regret not buying one earlier, but on the other hand with raising two kids, cashflow was restrictive for luxury purchases. |

I bought my first "nice" watch, an Omega Seamaster, when I was 20. I started collecting Breitlings a couple of years later. |
