Just picked this up from the Boutique in Vegas. Camera Phone doesn't do the watch justice.

Nice watch. Interesting association too. I did not know Ernie Ells was backed by an arrangement with Breitling. Very good casue and worth supporting.

Wear the watch in good health. :lingsrock:

Nice watch, I love the colour of that face. Any significance in the LE no of 88?

8's are lucky in Asia?

Nice watch and a great cause. Not a big fan of Ernie on the links however.

To answer the LE of 88 pieces question here's a quote from the press release:

"Portion of Proceeds Will Support Professional Golfer Ernie Els' Autism Organization

Wilton, Conn. (March 31, 2013) – Breitling has announced the release of the Els for Autism Breitling Limited Edition Chronograph timepiece in honor of Autism Awareness Month this April. The watch will be produced in partnership with Hall of Fame golfer, Ernie Els.

Luxury-Swiss watch manufacturer Breitling will donate 20 percent of the proceeds from the sale of this special watch to the Els for Autism Foundation.

Only 88 numbered watches will be produced, in reference to the statistic that autism affects 1 in 88 children. The special version of the Chronomat 44 will be composed of a steel case, blue dial and steel on steel Pilot bracelet with the Els for Autism logo etched on each caseback. Els will wear the #1 watch."

If you google this particular watch there are some great pictures, mine really don't do it justice.
