I have been considering the purchase of a Breitling that has a diamond bezel, but it is difficult to tell how "blingy" it is with just the watch by itself in the photos. I really like the chronomat, but I don't want my friends calling me "Puff Diddy" or some sh*t once I start wearing it. Any wrist shots of diamond bezel chronos, especially out of doors, would be appreciated. :superman:

No pics here :? but who cares what other people say ? As long as you are the one wearing it and if you're loving it, you'll be fine !! Enjoy buying :lingsrock:

I purchased one and I have only worn it a couple of times. It's way to flashy and some people look at you like you're wearing a fake cheesy watch.

If U like it (I sure do) screw everyone and their jealous thoughts! cause bottom line, it's a very sexy watch.

and who cares if they think its fake...you know its not.




Annnyways heres a pic......diamond dial adds way more bling, def not for everyone.

PS. This was my 60th birthday present from wifey in 2007. Never thought I'd wear a watch with diamonds for the same reasons most guys give (blingy, girly, gangsta, etc. ) but quickly discovered how conservatively (?) elegant they can be on a Chronomat. I also discovered I could care less about all the negative commentary posted about diamonds on a gent's watch. When done right, that is with an OEM diamond bezel, this slate dial beauty became a grail IMHO. I wear it with a suit or casual wear and enjoy owning it immensely. :)

Great shots, guys, thanks. It seems that the OEM diamonds are the only way to go.
