Hey All,

Just joined today. Been a Rolex fan for some time, but they are starting to bore me. Have been in love with Breitlings ever since I saw the Bentley line in person in 2008.

However.. just found my two new loves. One is the new Superocean Heritage Chronograph 44 mm on Mesh, and the other the 46 mm chrono/non-chrono in Blue and Black, also on mesh.

Will likely pull the trigger at some point, but just wanted to say hello.

Any wrist shots that you might have of these, I would love to see them.

Cheers!

Hello and welcome. You can't go wrong with the Breitling mesh band IMO, but I am in the minority around here.

It seems to be one of those love it or hate it things....nothing in between. As long as you like it that is all that matters. Feels like butter on the wrist. Can't go wrong IMHO I really dig them.

It's funny but I love the Omega mesh, but don't like the Breitling version - not sure why though.....

Anyway - welcome OP! :thumbsup:
