Just like that one.
I cant wait for it to arrive. Bought it with over a year of warranty remaining and from the oics it looks mint. I am guessing you have been pleased with yours? How do you find it fits into a rotation? Do you wear it more/less than you would like? Considering my other 2 watches have a combined 60 meters of water resistance, I felt like a super deep diver was appropriate.

Do yourself a favor and pick up the bracelet at some point. It's really nice, and you can change between the rubber strap and bracelet in like 10 seconds.
I keep hearing that the bracelet is worth the expense, and I have not tried one on myself, but aesthetically I am not really drawn to the bracelet. I am sure the build quality is great, and the quick change is really useful, but the design is just sort of bland looking.
My CM24 is on a bracelet and I love that style of smaller links which I feel like hug my wrist better. That being said I do consider myself a strap guy at the heart of it all, and I absolutely loved the Breitling deployant rubber strap. I hope the tang style IWC rubber strap is half as comfortable. However, not taking advantage of the quick change system, one of the main selling points of the watch, feels a bit odd.
For now I think one bracelet option in my collection will do, while I put my hard earned cash away for the opportunity to add my fourth,......the Portuguese Hand Wound pictured above.
I also had a SOH46 and sold it recently. The AT2000 fits in my rotation much better than the SOH did...it had got to the point that I never wore the SOH. I prefer the style of dive watches over anything else...so I may not be the best person to answer how it would fit into a rotation (I have worn my AT2000 with a suit before). I can say that the dial is a pure white and goes well with anything...also I really love the bezel on this watch...it is really what pushed me to pick it up in the first place.
As far as the rubber strap goes...it is nice, but not as versatile as the DPII on deployant. I have quite a few rubber strap options for my watches...and nothing comes close to Breitling's design for their rubber deployant clasps. The sliding micro adjustment is pure genius. The rubber strap for the AT2000 is nice, but I find that it is always "just" a little too tight or too loose. You never have that issue with the Breitling deployant clasp.
