That is a beautiful watch! With the silver dial, the brown leather strap looks beautiful!
The Colt Auto is a very classic style, that will always look great.
One thing I have to say about Breitlings: entry level or not, none of them look like they would really be an entry level watch, the quality is there in each and every model. One of my very favourites is still the Colt Quartz II.
Enjoy the watch!
Cheers,
Carl


Well put, Carl, entry level doesn't play and major role for Breitling.
I used to have a Chrono Cockpit (Windriderline).
Quality of finish wasn't different compared to my present Colt.

Just to echo everyone elses comments really.
I too really like the Colt and the model combo you have there looks really stylish.
"Entry level" ling is like saying "entry level" Bentley :)
It's really not appropriate tag lining at all is it.
Whilst the prices may vary, the same quality and style is apparent across the range.
We all have different tastes and thats what is so good about Breitling.
That really is a great looking wacth you have there ... Enjoy !

Just to agree with others thoughts here, I would not call this entry level, A breitling is a breitling and as I said in an earlier post in comparison to how Omegas seem to have shot up, a real bargin!

another echo, by no means is this a "cheap" watch, absolutely beautiful, and I personally would have your very one over quite a few more expensive 'lings! :mrgreen:

Seems to be one of the most bang for your buck watches. Very nice. The brown strap is a good choice.

Congrats, it really is a great piece. I just picked one up for my wife and she loves it...I think she gets more compliments than I do. I really like the polished look, it certainly has wrist presence.

Enjoy!

Its clear that we all have a problem with the phrase 'entry level'.
I bought my colt because I like the look and not because of the price..
enjoy your beauty!
