The Breitling Watch Source Forums

With the new year approaching, does anyone have any specfic watches on their radar for next year? I'm coming up on a little career milestone and thinking of adding this one probably around this time next year if possible.

Nothing specific planned for me yet. I may look into a black or blue dial diver type to go along with my coral SO. May also replace my speedy with a different chronograph model but will wait to see the new stuff. My wife and I also have a couple of milestones to celebrate next year so I'm sure something new will be procured.

That's a pretty fancy DJ there Justin. Are you sure you are up to it? You're not waiting for a Cubs' pennant to celebrate are you? (sorry)

Next year budget is going to be tight since i'm acquiring a Navitimer soon.

I'm probably looking at adding a Steinhart of some sort, maybe the 44mm Nav-B.

Also, i'm thinking of something more purely "Diver" than my CSO. So i'm thinking a blue dialed Doxa, the 750T Carribean most likely. But...plans change!!

I'm thinking that my collection (listed below) really needs a navitimer. That's next on my list for sure, BO1 if it's a good year, 2nd hand if it's a bad

In 2012 I will be turing 30 as well as hopefully reaching a couple of career milestones as well most notably my CPA, so I have my sights set on adding a dressier three hand model with a sweep seconds. I have abandoned my previous idea of flipping my Navi and CM24 for a Navi01 and will instead add a dressier model to compliment my current collection. The question is which one?????

JLC Master Control



Omega Deville Hour Vision



or my long lusted after Rolex Milgauss GV

One of these... but which one!?!

Planet Ocean 8500



Rolex Submariner Date



Rolex Explorer II 216570

I was just talking to someone yesterday about selling my PO and BB to pick up one of my grails, a JLC Navy SEAL Alarm and then picking up a Speedy Pro, another watch I've been wanting for a while. I'd also love to get a Navi 01 but that won't happen for some time.

Who gave you such sound watch advice? I like that plan. As for me, my plans change by the minute. Last year at this time all I wanted was an extreme alarm and a yacht club. They came and went in a blink. I'd very much like a B01 next, either a Navi or a Flying Fish. I'm looking forward to seeing the releases at SIHH, that will help shape my plans for 012'.

Some @$$hole that has too many watches that I want. Though if Breitling get's their heads out of their asses and designs a real diver with an in-house 3 hand movement I might change my mind. But what are the chances of something like that happening?

nothing set in stone for me yet. I havent seen anything that has made me want to drain my saving account. but im sure that will change in the near future

I wonder what watch will get the in-house 3 hand movement. SOH, SO, Wolf, Transocean? I'd LOVE to see them put it in a Steelfish, that would get the Breitling fanatics moist.

Do the CFA!!!!!

I spent today figuring out personal / business money with my company accountant ahead of year end so now have a better idea of whatt he budget might be. I'm thinking at this point that I might wait for Basel, definitely SIHH, but I am actually thinking that there may only be one or two in house watches next year, and maybe a 'weird' watch or two. I have a couple of ideas, but no solid short list.

That said, Artya is a favourite in the weird category - have been looking at these for a while and am really tempted - http://artya.luxuryartpieces.com/
