Hey Everyone,

Went to the local AD last night and picked up my new navitimer. I have been wanting this watch forever and figured finishing my PH.D was a great reason to get it for myself. It has the black face with the silver subdials, in my opinion a very classy look. The only one they had in the store was on a leather band, but they ordered the bracelet for me.
While I was there I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a Superocean Steelfish as well. Figured it would be a good everyday watch. It has the blue face with the Pro II bracelet. Such a nice looking watch. Anyhow, very excited about my new Breitlings and thought I would share.

Two in one day? Nice going! :thumbsup: If you've got the bug for them to that extent then you can thoroughly expect to be spending more of your hard earned in the future! :)

Welcome aboard.

Here I thought I was doing well with 2 in three weeks!
Congratulations! One of mine is a Steelfish as well, with Black dial and PRO II. The detail on the watch is an amzing work of art.
I got an Avenger Skyland Blacksteel last night. It is so rugged, that it will actually be my everyday watch.
Have fun with the new toys!
Cheers,
Carl

Congratulations on your double acquisition! I know your excitement- I got my first ling Monday, a Chrono Cockpit, and while the salesman was in the back removing a link from my new watch bracelet, I was poring over the case looking for my next one. It'll have to wait a little while; though I've been married for 31 years, I'm not ready for a divorce.
Enjoy!
Mark

treacle1125,

Welcome aboard and congratulations on the PHD. And I commend you on your decision to get the bracelet for the NAV. You will soon need a Bentley and/or a Super Avenger. Trust me the desire will develop soon !
