Thanks to George at Goveberg for finding the watch for me and to all the community members that helped with advice during the buying process. Here are some pics of the new watch:

Come on no shots at the sparkly blue fuzzy blanket at the end...my wife asked if the watch was doing a playboy shoot...I thought it would get a laugh!

Why...? Doesn't everyone keep their watches snuggled in crushed velvet,velour or something soft and fuzzy :?

I was absolutely wondering about that, then I added it up with your wife's SLR bit; was like "Woah; I don't know you like that!" and bugged out!

Also my first Breitling. You obviously have great taste :) Anything looks good on it. Many ways to "church" it up! Although now a days, it feels a little too big for me. 40-42mm is more my liking now.

Congrats! Great watch and great seller. I often wonder if I should have gotten a white fish over my blue. I'd actually like to have one of each, but does not seem that practical.

Congratulations on your first LING, Very nice watch. Wear it well. You could soon be adicted like the rest of us. Breitlings can become an affliction!!!!
