Nice pick up, Magi. The prior generation of Colts are outstanding watches IMO and greatly under-appreciated. I owned the white dial version, and regret selling it.

I absolutely love the GMT. I tried it on once in a brightly lit AD and found that, on bracelet, it was too bling for me. If I knew then what I knew now I'd just have put it on black rubber (as above, and as I have with my SuperOcean). A beautiful watch.

I understand what you felt with the bracelet beeing too flashy! At first I did to, but without it it's not the same piece at all. It's really nice!

A true statement across the board as far as I'm concerned. I've owned three Breitlings and preferred all of them on rubber versus steel or leather.

Black rubber just seems to work so well in balance with the Breitling look. It doesn't hurt that Breitling makes a fantastic rubber strap, of course.

Switched my GMT to a blue diver pro III. Great looking and comfortable combo! Wearing it way more often now.
