As of 3/2/12, this is my collection. It's nothing fancy, but I really just got into watches less than a month ago. I'm really looking foward to growing my collection and hopefully catching up to you guys!

My wife (girlfriend at the time) gave me the Movado as a birthday present, and I was absolutely shocked. Now this was probably 4 years ago and I thought it awesome! I couldn't believe I had a $899 watch! I literally wore it about everyday until I sent it in for service. This really got me into looking at watches. After about 1 month of initial research I decided Breitling was for me! I bought the Colt II on Feb. 6. At first, I couldn't decide between the Colt or the BR, but I thought the Colt was one hell of a watch, and a much better deal than the B&R. Well, the B&R was still haunting me so fast foward to today. The BR-S was delivered today. I tried on the BR-S in black ceramic, but wasn't a fan. I like the 39mm and the steel of this one.

Sorry for the rant, but I hope to update this often ;)

Thanks in advance for any comments. Also, don't hesitate to give me some input on what should be my next purchase!

Jeff

Congrats on the B&R. I really like them, but realize they are not for everyone. I have gone back and forth between the 03 phantom, power reserve and the standard steel...I keep coming back to the plain steel. I like the plain easy dial and non-standard look of the square flat case. Enjoy!

Thanks for the replies guys! I got to wear my BR all day today and was in love!

I'm not sure if I'll buy another, but I'm going to enjoy the steel for now!

Not a Movado fan...I would have to unload that...but it's a gift. You have to keep it. But otherwise, terrific watches.

I'm not a fan of all Movado's, but I do like mine. I like the simplicity.

I'm thinking I need some color, there is too much black!

Thanks!

Well I've been saving up for a vintage Breitling, but ran across this and couldn't pass up on the deal. I've been wanting something sporty to possibly play golf in, and I wanted something that didn't have a black face!
