Yep, that would be me! :) After a few days of staring at this, in the for sale section, I just couldnt take it anymore. I have no will power. (and now no watch fund!)

I must say that after having it on my wrist for the last few hours, I cant believe what a nice watch this is and cant believe that I didnt get one sooner! Might need a brown Croco strap for this one!

I present my Navitimer World......

Congratulations Bronco - great watch, great photos and definitely my favourite colour also.

No doubt you'll have a new watch fund again soon ready for the next piece :D

Looks good Bronco, it must be a pretty tough choice in the morning to decide which watch to wear.

How does one qualify as a 'Full Ling Club' member?

Looks very at home on your wrist mate.

Great pickup!. I'm a massive fan of the blue dial World actually.

from the glossary: full ling: A Breitling watch that has a minimum lug width of 24mm and a diameter of at least 46mm and is accompanied by a metal bracelet, not a strap. This diameter applies to round Breitlings. Examples of full lings: Super Avenger, Bentley Motors, Navitimer World.

Only on the weekends, since the black Steelfish is the only one that gets worn at work. (Just cant risk banging the others around and get them buggered up!) But in the evenings and on the weekends, I alternate watches frequently.... except for right now. The World will get more wrist time until the "new" wears off and then I will put it into the regular rotation.

Sweet! I picked up one today as well. Black on steel. It is instantly my favorite. Love the white dial, the blue on the dial is very good looking accents.
