The Breitling collection took a major reduction over the past few months but I think I have it down to my favorite pieces. Still think I could use a Code Yellow in there. I'm loving these Breitling display cubes that I picked up on the bay!

some current, some classic themes, a couple bracelets, and a few straps. (Nice Patina on the brown crocco btw)

I would say that is a very all inclusive group to keep around

I think you should replace the BEB Blackbird with the new Red Strike BB! :poke:

Don't see the proffessional line represented there. :lol:

That's two strikes right there Kodiak! You must know my feelings about both!! I need a Skyland to complete it.

Ha, Ha! I did see somewhere you weren't too keen on the Red Blackbird, didn't realize the SQ models were on your black list also. It was getting boring lately, thought I would add some good laughs. :wink:

Seriously, I love the SOHC 125th LE - wish it wasn't quite so large. I think a BB is in my future sometime, just don't know exactly when.
Haven't you been able to find a Code yellow or just not the right time yet?

My AD ordered me one but I'm not sure about the chrome numbers. I tried it on last week and the numbers were impossible to see even in the slightest light. Still unsure about that one.

Oh...and I'm not a fan of the professional line...not my style. As for the Blackbird RedShit...I mean Red Strike, I hate that bleeping thing!!!

Yeah, I know what you mean about the arabics on the new Avenger, hard to see, especially on the black dial. I like the old Skyland with the white arabics better. Maybe you should hold out for the new Chronomat(B01) with display back if and when it shows up ?? next year??
