May I recommend considering the Extreme Lab 2 if you prefer a more casual watch with an open dial. I own that watch and it is a fantastic piece of engineering and an unbelievable value!

That Lab 2 is amazing. Outside my range, though.

The collection is looking great, Justin. That colt gmt is one of my all time favorite breitlings. It’s sharp. How much wrist time does it get?


It's hit or miss with the GMT. I can go a week without wearing it and then wear it a few times. It's one that doesn't have a winder spot most of the time so it's easy to grab and go. If I need to grab a watch quick, it's either the GMT or the Skyracer. I still love the polished pro bracelet and the textured dial.

I have seen it go for 30K, the Duometre is around 25. Five thousand dollars is allot of money, all I am saying is the improvement is so substantial and if you, like myself, prefer sportier watches it is worth waiting and saving. Whichever you go with, I am sure they will give you many years of joy!


Great idea for a thread by the way, I love seeing SOTC's and future aspirations! :cheer:
