I'm new here and this has probably been asked before but I'm too lazy to search the threads...LOL!

How many Breitlings do you own?

Does anyone have nothing BUT Breitlings in their collection?

At one time I transitioned from a variety of pieces to only Breitling (wherein I accumulated quite a number). Then, about 8 years ago I started picking up different makers watches again (Rolex, Panerai, etc.). Breitling is still the majority of my collection, however.

Yep, Trevor is the main guy who got me thinking from going from over 130 Zodiacs to a more manageable, higher end collection...

Your SuperOcean REALLY got my attention...

At one point I was in the high teens with ALL Breitlings. And it got worse from there. Now I have 7 Breitlings and more non-Breitlings tha Brreitlings. And I also significantly reduced the # of watches. Today what was but an amalgamation of watches feels more like an actual "collection."

Down to 27 lings and a Mont Blanc. (from 33 a couple of years ago). Probably down to around 20 by next year, due to lots of items requiring cash at the moment :(

Breitling still dominates my collection and there was a point in time, when all I had was Lings. But there is just way tooo much good out there in this world to stick to only Lings for me!

I think I'm becoming a Panerai nut as well... I'm just about ready for a second one.
On that note.. if anyone know where to find a good pre-owned 183 give me shout! haha
