Hi everyone,

I'm new here, Warners the name.

So, here I am. A member of the Breitling club! Got my Colt Chronograph II at the start of the month and have worn it everyday pretty much :)

Ive wanted a Breitling for four years now, after seeing a Chrono Colt at Mappin & Webb in Cambridge, I've hammered after one ever since. After many years saving up, a name change and the price going up by nearly £1000 I've got one!

Purchased from the local Goldsmiths, great service and I felt special :P

I went for the black face in the end as I wanted it to be understated and the missus agreed. Was very tempted by the blue though.

So, now I've got the bug ive purchased a small travel box and I'm enquiring about a Pro Diver III from the AD.

I look forward to hanging out here and getting to know everyone :)

Now some badly taken pics...

Hey

Congratulations on joining the B club. I too felt rather special the day I bought mine.

The good news is that the feeling does not wear off. You'll feel great each time you strap it on.

You've worked hard for it. So enjoy it to the fullest.

Cheers guys,

I don't think the smile will wear off, the only trouble now is I seem to be addicted and already pondering what's next! I do seem to have a thing for a Submariner now but I've also been looking for another Breitling :)

Welcome. My Navi 01 will be a year old next month, I wear it every day, and I still feel lucky to own it every time I look at it, so I hope the experience will be the same for you. Having said that, I would also like to get another watch at some point, either a submariner or a sea dweller (not the deep sea). Oh,and an early Navi 806.......

£50 for the rubber from my local Goldsmiths AD. Available now for Deployant, pin buckle coming soon.


Thanks everyone for the kind words, the watch is one month old today :D

I want a navi/cosmonaute now I've got the bug!
