hello everyone..im steve, brand new to the site and in december i took the plunge into buying a breitling, my buddy owns a AD in new york and every so often i go window shopping there and i finaly bought this one and i love it and cant wait to my buy my next breitling, it came half saten and half polished finish, i asked for the watch to be complelty polished and to add a 2kt diamond bezel, i know a little overboard for my first one but i love the way it looks, its a 2004 superocean which was completely overhaulded and you wouldent know it was pre owned and for the price i paid with everything you couldent beat the deal...im sorry the pics r bad i took them with my cell fone, ill update it with i get the rubber strap...

Welcome!

You sure have treated your SO well. :) Diamond bezels on SO's aren't that common, so you should be fairly unique.

I think the rubber strap would be good if you wanted a more sporty look. But since the diamond bezel kind dresses up the watch, I think the leather strap may be more appropriate.

Both will work beautifully, however.

Both! Then you can get even more diversity. :)
