My new Chrono-matic 49 arrived from Breitling today. I have to say I am impressed with the quality. I know it is a Breitling but it is very finley detailed. I am very happy with my newest addition to the collection. I purchased this watch during the watch fair event at my AD and I recieved a new Wolf watch winder, and my sales gal told me today she threw in the XL strap and deployant upgrade no charge. Great day, great deal! I know there are those that have a hard time with the break from tradition but to see this watch is to love it.

Gorgeous watch! But where is the obligatory wrist shot?

Thank you for posting these great photos.

This is an exciting watch that somehow seems to polarize some people into "Love It or Hate It" feelings.

It's on my shortlist but I haven't been able to view one in person.

I'd love to see some shots of it on your wrist.

cheers,
Rohan

That's definitely one of the best two dial / strap combinations to have. (The other being the black dial on black leather IMHO).

This is one watch that I think looks infinitely better on calf leather than on croco for some reason.

Very nice indeed. :thumbsup:

(But I agree we need a wrist shot as well! :wink: )

Nice pics, and nice pick up. As Driver8 says, that is a great combination.






Crown's still on the wrong side though :wink:
