Incredible!
That really looks better on the Ocean Racer, to me, than on the stainless bracelet. One of, if not the best, Breitling me thinks.
I got the Blacksteel, and love it. I know, however, that I would love the stainless just as much. I keep asking myself, if I should have got just the one you have instead.
Enjoy!
Cheers,
Carl

thanks. i cant stop looking at it today.2 things stand out. 1.the ocean racer strap is way above any deployant i have worn ,the clasp has a little push button inside that allows micro adjustments .really cool.2. the crystal is so good i swear if you look at it in the right light you would think you could reach in and touch the hands .incredible.

First off Congrats on a great watch. I just got mine on Wednesday and I got a call this morning that my AD is shipping my Ocean Racer Strap on Tuesday. So I will have the exact same set up as your watch. I just can't stop looking at my watch enjoy it. :lingsrock:

That Ocean Racer strap!!! Although I love the Blacksteel, and sometimes wonder if the polished stainless Skyland would not have been a better choice...I have a Steelfish with stainless bracelet, actually wore it again tonight. It is another beauty in it's own right, and if I feel like getting "dressed up", it's the one I wear. I'm getting an Ocean Racer strap for it as well, even with that I will still feel it's dressier than the Blacksteel. I guess the polished Skyland would fit both occasions, but there is something incomparable in the Steelfish that I feel no other Breitling comes close to. Sometimes you can't describe these feelings, you just have to wear the watch on various occasions to appreciate the differences. Whether I wear the Blacksteel or the Steelfish, I can't help looking at them many times throughout the day....I must be nuts, and I am certainly hooked on these watches!!
Again...enjoy that Skyland!!!
Cheers,
Carl
