I have been away from this forum for a while so you guy's have probably already discussed this but a few years back many of us were hoping for a larger Chronomat and I noticed that the Chronomat GMT is 47 MM and 24 MM at the lugs making it a FULL LING. On the Breitling web site I couldn't find a model in Gold or 2 tone. Does this Chronomat only come in Stainless ?

i would put it on par with an SA in terms of thickness. i saw one at the AD and it is a serious piece of metal. nice looking piece but i dont have the wrist size for it.

On me it looked like a hockey puck. On the less carpally challenged, it seemed proportional to the SA, but didn't scream BIG!!!! as much as an SA due to the extra interest and refinement of the GMT.
