Hello
I'm new here and from the UK.
Just ordered my first Breitling, the only difference from the image is i ordered mine with a Black "CROC" strap.
Always wanted a Rolex, really liked the new GMTII-C but when i saw the Breitling i fell in love.

Cheers.

Like i said above i was really in the market for the GMTII-C Rolex but this looked awesome !
I'm 38 now and i feel the Rollie would suit me better at 45 LOL.

What model did you invest in?

Thanks guy's

I have to admit my one does look better with the "CROC" strap. The strap on the one above is a bit to smooth looking for me.

A quick question?
Although my one has some Gold on it the buckle is stainless, i would really like to buy a Gold buckle to finish the strap off.
Where could i get one from? would i have to buy a whole new strap?
