... to where I want to be, watch-wise.

I have my Chrono Avenger and Steelfish and a Skyland Avenger on the way in.

After trying "boutique" brands like Damasko, UTS and Sinn and some tried and true marques (TAG, Omega, Bell & Ross, etc.), I decided that all-Breitling works the best for me. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with the watches that I tried and sold - given unlimited funds I'm sure I'd still have some of them. But, being that I have only a set amount of cash to work with, the 3 watces that I ended up with are the ones that make me the happiest.

Now that I'm set for watches at the moment, what should be the fourth watch that I lust after? I definitely can't buy another (and don't see myself doing so anytime in the forseeable future), but it's nice to have a goal. :D

I do find that Breitling watches have tremendous staying power for me too. What about a nice Navi or Bentley model to add to your collection?

I also agree that a Navitimer would fit in well and offer more variety within your Breitling collection.

Welcome back to status quo! I'd also suggest something from the Navitimer range. Just to open the Chronolog and start day-dreaming.

(Sorry, I shouldn't mention long-haired and yet balding soft-rockers in any of these threads, and I promise never to do so again! :lol: )

Well, you're "In the army now" - army of Breitlings, that is. ;)

This thread is becoming 'The Wanderer'

Ok, I'll stop.

Welcome back from the darkside Ross.

As others have said a Navitimer would be a nice contrast to your Aeromarines.
