Well where do i begin, dreamt of owning a Ling back in about 1985, been in to countless AD's trying different one's on over the years but never had the guts to actually buy one, or had the money to be honest, but still the dream went on, then just last month i bought myself a brand new superocean with black face and polished strap, cant really afford one but what the hell a dreams a dream and you only live once right. I'd say the only dissapointment about the whole thing is i used to get my 150 quid accurist admired more than my bloody breitling LOL...every where i went people would comment on that watch and as yet no-one has said a god damn word about my pride and joy. :cry:

mmm maybe the places i frequent the clientel have no taste ! :roll:

But a big hi to you all anyway !

:lol: But then just console yourself with the knowledge that your SO obviously has an understated class that your Accurist could never have! :thumbsup:

Welcome aboard the good ship BreitlingSource.

Welcome aboard! Not everyone will know or understand what you have on your wrist, but when you run across someone that says 'Hey nice Breitling' with a smile on their face, it will no doubt bring a smile to yours ;)

Enjoy it! :)

Welcome to the madness. SO is a great watch and when someone does notice it think of the pride that you will have when you tell them it's a Breitling (and if you are like me you'll then bore them for 10 minutes telling them all about it) :wink:

:welcome:

Just to reasure you. Even when you wear a Yellow Emergency with a UTC, you rarely get a response, but as Roff says, when you get the nod, it does make it all worth while.

By the way, when will you be buying your second. Oh, did they not tell you that this Breitling thing is addictive :wink:
