Some of you know I've been chasing a Bentley Le Mans for a while. Actually, if I had just been a tiny bit quicker with my email handling, I would have snatched the one Roffensian got. Instead, I've had a few leads but nothing that really came to any conclusions - until yesterday!

Grattis! Looks wonderful.

BTW, what a week this has been - Altair got his 233, D8 got his IWC and you got the Le Mans! Fantastic.
Maybe we should crown week 10 as the "Official Wristwatch Grail Week ", hahahaa

Was just thinking the same thing hnb. I'm pretty pumped just by sharing in the whole thing. It's really contagious!!!

Who's next I wonder :D

Nice going Aleister! :thumbsup: Great to see another Le Mans joining the BreitlingSource family!

I think that's 4 that are owned by members on here now - my blue, a white owned by a guy who's name I forget as he never posted much, and now you and Roff with your bronzes! Just the other 996 to find! :wink:

Great pick up, my man!

WOW, Very nice indeed! I really like the whole color combos you have going there! Congrats Aleister! I know you have been after one for a while so it must be that much for satisfying!


And very nice pics too, I really wanted to see some good Bronze bentley pics,and those hit the spot :lingsrock:

If my wrists were large enough (really large!), I'd get this monster too! Very nice, huge watch, mainly with the leather strap.

Congrats aleister! It's a great watch isn't it.

Never realised that you were after mine as well - sorry if I sniped you there.

That looks really good on the croc too, may have to pay a visit to the AD, and of course we both know that you bought the best colour.

@Altair - thanks for the subtle dig that my photos of the Le Mans weren't decent :lol: :wink:

I thought you might pick up on that Roff :uplaugh:

Hey you might have forgotten more about horology than I know, have great taste in watches, and be a real helpful and all around nice guy, but you suck as a photographer :wink: :lol:
