I'd like to congratulate myself on my way back to the Breitlingworld. My Evo is traveling to me as we speak. Can't wait for it to arrive! Never owned a Chronomat model so this will be exciting.

I'd congratulate you but you already did that. Enjoy. :cheer:

Come back next week I'll start talking about myself in third person then. :D

But thank you for the congratulation! :lingsrock:

When you do your Evo review please do it in the third person, now that would be entertaining. By the way, which model Evo did you get? One of my favorite lings that I have never owned is the Evo w/blue dial and romans.

I'm not really sure whether there's a need for a review of the Evo since Mr. Breitlingsource himself made a "videoview" of it. But since I'd like to do it in third person... let's say that I'm thinking about it.

Ohh yeah the blue is really nice. I got the slate grey with batons and black dials. I'd love the romans but didn't find anyone in a decent price range here in Europe.

Will do! It looks like it'll be arriving on monday at 18:00 or 6 P.M. CET. So nothing until then I'm afraid.

Gaah! FedEx just told me that the package needs to go through x-ray and won't be delivered until the 2nd of may. Damn it!

In general, I'm fairly patient guy, but when it comes to an inbound watch - forget about it!

congrats, and that dial combo is one of my favorites. No doubt you will love the watch. Great wrist presence and a bit of bling without being over the top. Very nice choice. :lingsrock:

Congrats on the new watch, that's a beautiful dial!! That was one of the exact combo's I was considering when I picked up my blackbird, looks great in person! Sorry to hear about the wait, but I'm sure you'll enjoy it thoroughly once it's there

Hahaha yeah I can really really relate to that. Usually I buy my watches face to face but this is torture. Especially when FedEx don't update tracking since it's waiting x-ray.

Thank you for your kind words! I'm sure I'll enjoy it for a long time. :D

Thanks a lot!

It's a popular model so I know that I've made a great choice. Especially, you can't go wrong with Breitling. 8)

Congratulations! I agree, that's a great dial. And the bezel font is good too. :P Enjoy it.
