Jon, you ended up with the perfect trio, a truly well balanced collection, both in design and movement technology,
so congrats again, could not imagine a better choice of three iconic "modern" Breitling classics.

As long as you make sure not to be bitten by the vintage bug, you should be fine ....

Thanks. And again, I appreciate your help with the Mec. I'm wearing it today, and it is lovely.

If I do go down the vintage path, it will be your assortment of grandfathers that does it.

Congrats on a great pickup. You can't go wrong with Govberg. I tried on the one you got awhile back when I was there, it's a really nice looking watch.

Fred - I wonder if I'll ever buy a watch for which you don't have an ancestor... :wink:

well David, maybe not a Breitling, as you have impeccable taste :wink:

I've been telling my wife that for years -- maybe you could repeat that in an email to her...

Wow! Congratulations on such a great swap and hats off to Govbergs for such a deal.
A warm welcome note from my TOC to your new TOC :wink:
