I usually like to wear a ring, one of my little pleasures in addition to my Breitling. Just thought I would show my three favourite ones. I really think that the Steelfish somehow lends itself very well to being worn with a bit of jewellery. It is a very versatile watch, and just looks great in any situation, casual or dressy. This is an updated pic of a previous one, which I think is a lot better:

I am also thinking that it would be great if Breitling had a large mens ring with the Breitling "B".
Cheers,
Carl

I always thought Sterling Silver Jewelry like this was cool. My local AD has started making and selling some biker jewelry that I think is some of the best stuff I've seen. Check it out and let me know what you think. Nightriderjewelry.com

Hey nnikolaus,
I took a quick glimpse of that website of your AD. That looks like fantastic stuff he makes, I'm just on my way out the door, but I will take a closer look tonight. That's great: You have an AD for Breitling, as well as he makes some great jewellery, it looks like the best. I wish I could see it, but the closest reseller is in Las Vegas. I really love the square ring, with the Fleur de Lis, and I think it has a black onyx background. Great stuff!
Maybe later this month, I will be in a position to order one of those pieces. I love those rings almost as much as my watches!
Cheers,
Carl

Sorry, I didn't think my pic was up to par, so I am planning to redo it. I didn't get a lot of response, so I was also thinking maybe my idea of my Steelfish pic with my sterling silver rings was inappropriate.
Cheers,
Carl

Sorry about the confusion guys. I was too tired last night to update the original photo I posted, so I deleted it and fixed it this morning.
I read the comments I made, and it was indeed confusing. Maybe the red wine and Irish Whiskey had something to do with that?
Cheers,
Carl

Ah, Carl, you should never pour whiskey in your red wine. ;)

Yes, they both deserve fair and seperate consumption. Now go and embibe both liberally as a punishment! :P

Hey he makes some very cool rings. Are those prices negotiable?

Actually, it's snowing like Hell, so I am going down the road to a Caribbean restaurant, and ebibing on vast quantities of Rum Punch. Why not mix things up a little? Just to liven things up, I will be wearing my Steelfish accompanied by my "Winged Skull" ring, as shown in the photo. Who knows what surprises I may have, when I return home later tonight?
Have a great weekend, guys!
Cheers,
Carl

Nice pics Carl. Don't ask me why but I guess I never pictured you wearing this type of jewelry. I also like to wear a bit of sterling silver with the Steelfish...gold just seems to throw it all off.

Hey T-MAN,
Funny you should say that, most of my friends that see me with those rings (by the way, I only wear one at a time) say the same thing - especially when I wear the "Winged Skull". I don't even have a motor bike. I guess rings to me are like watches: I want something different that I don't see everyone else wearing, and also something bigger than the normal size. Not really a show-off thing, just a bit of fun. I remember when I was looking at rings, and I saw the "Winged Skull". The other ring I liked didn't fit me, so I tried that one on for fun, and it fit like a glove. So, it grew on me, and I liked the smile, and I thought it's for me and I really don't mind what others think. It's also a great conversation piece.
Agree with you about the gold. I really don't like it with silver, although a number of Breitlings have the gold/silver combo. If I had a gold ring, then I would want a gold watch to wear it with. Which is exactly what I would spend big bucks on if I had gobs of money.
Cheers,
Carl
