Okay, after a few weeks of bullying from the Ling cartel :twisted: here is the DATED photographic proof that I have swapped out the leather strap for the bracelet.

As if it wasnt enough that I promised the bracelet was back on the ringleader demanded dated photographic proof that it had been done - thought I'd better get the picture done as soon as I got back from my holidays - I don't want to antagonise them again :oops:

(You new guys better make sure you keep in line)

Lingman...this is for you :D

Mossy,

Welcome back. GOOD MOVE now all you need is a polish job and you will be approaching Whole Ling Club membership. I hope you had a great vacation.

Vacation was good thanks, but after two whole weeks full time with my satanic offspring, I'm glad to be back.

I still love the leather - but its nice having the bracelet back on again and I will admit to a slight grin when I admired it on my wrist again.

Summers started here and the leather was getting a little uncomfortable anyway.

Would I get a whole ling with a polish job?? CA is only 22 at the lugs, or would it get a special dispensation because of its thickness and chunky pushers?

Surely the white dial gets me 1/16th of a ling too

Found a white dial titanium UTC on ebay Gernmany - only £270!!! Bargain!! I mentioned it to the wife but just 2 days after our vacation my timing was all wrong :cry:

Mossy,

You should look into a Super Avenger. I think the Super Avenger is the most bang for the buck in Breitlings. They look great and they are not that expensive for what you are getting. My Bentley was $7275 USD after tax with a discount. You can get a Super Avenger with a good discount for about $3600 USD about half the price of a Bentley Motors Ling. It takes a little while to get used to the thickness of it but once that's over it's one Hell of a LING

I did, the SA was my first choice, but as i've said in other posts I really prefered the lightweight CA once it was on, also the SA I was going to buy was a white dial so it did look huge. It must be my english reserve kicking in but at the time I really felt the CA was the one for me and I tried a few different models on before making my mind up.....

SA = too big
B2 = too busy
NAV = felt like i'd break it
CA = just right

I'm still a big fan of the SA and always will be. I dunno, maybe one day I will trade up. Like youve said before you get used to it, and i've already started to think the CA is looking a little on the small side. If they made an SA in Titanium i'd be really tempted.

Mossy,

One unpolished Titanium Ling is enough. It's time to move up to the POLSHED Whole Ling !
