@ Shark-I don't know anything about the lume on the Yacht Club, but it is soo beautiful that I don't care. It is just a very clean, very classy dress watch that would work perfectly for me when I need to wear a suit. I also love the Portuguese Manual Wind with the black dial...

I am also with you on the Aquatimer 2000M, but I like the white dial. Talk about lume...that one has 2 different colors for the lume, and appears to be extremely bright. Looked at both the white dial and black dial today.

Did you check one out with a bracelet? Wondering how the bracelet is.

True, though currently most of mine stock is on rubber or leather.

Beyond Man this is Beyond Weird. I take a break from "Inglorious Bastards" to try to find the white on white chrono on the Blancpain website (which I couldn't BTW), but I do find this blue one. I set my laptop down, still open to the BP website photo of this watch and my phone blinks at me, I get your message, and up pops the very watch on my laptop. (And through it all I miss Hitler getting blown away)

Do you work for the New York CIA field office???????? I have to get a better firewall.

I did look at the Aquatimer on the bracelet as well as the rubber strap...and like them both. I would give the edge to the bracelet on that one. The Yacht Club was on a black rubber strap with deployment which was very nice. I don't think I would have any interest in a metal bracelet for it. The rubber strap along with a calf/gator option in black would be my choice.

Both of those FFs are beyond ugly!!

The yacht club looks amazing on a rubber strap....I wouldn't want it on a bracelet either.

I seem to have a thing for black dials, you know what they say, "Once you go black..."

WTF man? You can't end with that sentence and not tell us what it is.

I like the Top Gun, but if I'm gonna get a Pilot from IWC it's gonna be the Big Pilot, that thing is just retarded, you know, in a good way. I can't believe how much nicer that watch is in person. I think I'm done with Breitling's for a while. I'm itching for an Omega, a PAM, an IWC and the Rolex. I think that would be a pretty diverse collection, even if they do all have black dials. I just realized that you have 2 of my grails :(
