Saw where they gave the Breitling a 3 point advantage in the review, most of that had to do with how much more the IWC cost! Was nice to see Breitling compared favorably to a brand with the status of IWC! :lingsrock:

Thanks, cool comparison. I really like that Big Ing on a strap, one hell of a watch.

Unfortunately that cool BI strap tends to fall apart quite easily. A mate of mine has one and he's gone through 2 straps in as many years. The inner and outer surfaces of the leather seems to be bonded together quite flimsily at the lugs.

They compare 120 to 500 meter waterresistancy and award no points for the difference?
