My AD called and said she arrived, and I could not wait! My expectations have been surpassed. I really liked the GMT 47, but could not get used to a chronomat of that size. I absolutely love this one. This could be my all-time favorite Breitling. The bi-directional bezel clicks exactly like my former Rolex GMTIIc, smooth and exact. I don't mind the font at all, and can't even see the square on the dial, which never bothered me anyway. The 24 hr bezel works for me as I can easily see my second time zone. Plus, you can add a third time zone. I could not be happier with this watch. Now for the crappy "smart" phone pics! HAGWE guys. :D

Everything I said already in the WWAYWT section, HOWEVER I love it on the bracelet, I have no issue with it on the calf but for GOD'S SAKE don't ever put it on the rubber strap again!!!

But Wes, the Ocean Racer and diver are a nice compliment. :D When it gets hot, you can't beat the comfort. :wink:

Looks awesome, buddy! I can see this one being a keeper. You should post that pic where you can see the palm tree in the reflection of the rider tab!

Cheers pal.

That's looks outstanding. Can't see the square (which I hate) the brushed bezel is awesome, and the overall size is perfect. That's one sharp ling, perfect dial color combo IMO. Congrats and enoy.

I wish this had been available in 2009 when I bought my Chronomat 01. I'd love to have the GMT functionality.
