I pulled the trigger today on a silver Navitimer World w/ the bracelet today. It will be here Monday!

I'm so excited! I can't wait!

So does this mean I got the FULL LING now?

Thanks!

I'm having it delivered at work so I don't miss Fed-Ex. I ought to get an email address and send a picture of my new B-Ling to Little Switzerland in Curacao.

Thanks Altair! I feel like a member of the club now!

It's tempting to blur out the seller's name, but leave the amount clearly visible.

What's funny is I even got it $30 cheaper than what I told the manager at Little Switzerland! Not like $30 bucks is a big deal, but every little bit helps. I'll be sure to take a photo of me wearing the new piece so she remembers me!

Flynbyu,

Congratulations on becoming a member of the FULL LING club. As long as the bracelet is 24 MM at the lugs you have the FULL LING. The Nav world is a great FULL LING. Naviman has one and he loves it and I really like that 7 rowed bracelet. You will really like the way it expands into the lugs. Now that Admin is about to become a Full Ling member when his Speed Bracelet arrives I think we should talk to him about running a survey to see how many of this forums members have Full Lings. Once we know that I think we need to talk Admin into creating a separate "members only" section that requires a user name and password and can only be accessed by Full Ling owners. New members would be required to provide proof of Full Ling status before being granted a password. Put the pressure on Admin he's a good guy and he's usually pretty easy going on these matters .

Thanks Acceldebt!

Great idea on the "members only" section. I belong to another forum (www.raptorforum.com) where we have a VIP status, and it allows us access several other areas. It helps the owner pay for the server costs and links you to other guys/girls that enjoy high performance ATV's.

I'm not sure of the bracelet, but the photo on the website shows the bracelet having seven rows of links in the bracelet. I'm really looking forward to being a Breitling owner. I have to admit, I wasn't crazy about the look of Breitlings at first until I saw one on my wrist a couple of years ago while on vacation. Needless to say, Breitling watches have really grown on me!

Thanks again!

~Brian

Nice, The Navitimer World is a great watch. It's huge but discreetly huge, if that even makes sense in the same context. Was considering this before the SA, but I rather keep the extra 2k difference.

Thanks BONE!

As of this morning, the Navi-World was in Tulsa, OK (about two hours from me) waiting delivery for Monday.

I can't wait!

That makes sense. I tried on the Navitimer and it just looked a little small on my wrist. I'm looking forward to being a "Full-Ling" owner!


Once the the new wears off of the Navi-World, and my wife takes me back off watch probation, I wouldn't mind owning a Super Avenger, or a Cartier Roadster chrono (To match my wife's Roadster). I guess that's about a year away.

It's finally here.

All I can say is WOW. My camera is out of juice, so the pictures will be posted this evening when I get home.

Thanks for everyone's help and information regarding my purchase of my new Navitimer World. I'm glad I went with the FULL LING. What a monster!

Thanks again gang!

~Brian
