Here it is! after a long time of saving, I finally got it!! I posted in the intros about changing the black dial for the silver/blue dial. I got the silver/blue chrono superocean. I like it more than the black because it is less formal...IMO... I am so happy I finally got it. I love it!!!

My only thing is....why do I not see alot of CSOs on here???? Is it because the people who have them like them so much that they don't sell them?? or is it because people do not buy them?? When looking into Lings, i opted out of the navitimer and a few others for the CSO. I like it more and like the size and style. I like the water resistance...even though i wonder how it will do in salt water? we will see....I just figured it would be a little more popular. I also paid 3k.usd...fair??? regardless. I love it and hope it lasts me a liftime. Already picked out the next watch too btw haha it's addicting!!!!

I know the photo isnt the best... I'll try to get better

I have the black-dial CSO and love it. Presumably it is a less popular watch because of its size - although given the fact Breitling has continued to offer it unchanged (except for the bracelet) since 2003, I have to question just how unpopular it is. Personally, the size is what I like about it. With my 6.5 inch wrist, even the Chronomat is too bulky for me, to say nothing of Breitling's larger offerings. The CSO fits me well, but still has a good wrist presence. To me, it is a perfect blend of form and function, with a classic Breitling look. Congrats on the acquisition.

BTW, $3k is a good price for it.
