Well lads its nearly the end of the year! End of the financial year 08, 09 = BONUS! :D = Possible new WATCH :guns: :guns: :guns: :D

I think some of you here already know the kind of style I like(pics below) but I am open to suggestions and a new watch maybe doesn't necessarily mean a Breitling!!! Not that I've gone off them but a few alternatives to look at may be nice!

Try your best :D

That all depends on how good the bonus will be. :)

Well, a Panerai would be an obvious choice given that you seem to like that style, but it's always good to have a little variety. Lately, I've been taken with some of IWC's offerings. In particular, their Big Pilot and Portuguese models are beautiful.

If you want to get another B, then get a Seawolf... it should be perfect to you.
Just check out the galleries here - we "SS Seawolfers" are growing in numbers!

I know that a bentley motors is next on my wishlist. However, if you are considering buying a new watch I would wait until after basel because you never know what new model breitling might catch your fancy

There's one for auction soon - Antiquorum I think - that's not a bad idea.

It is just a tad pricey though.

I'm in a similar position mate. Its not an easy decision but obviously budget has alot to do with it.

Cheers guys! I forgot to mention I won't blow all the bonus on a watch probably £2 or £3 thousand just depends! I think thats a fair amount for working 60+ hours a week for most of the year! I quite like some of the Panieris also quite like the Tag Carrera's but Breitling would probably be top choice but thats only cos I would know a bit more about what I'm buying and that would make me feel more comfortable!

Cheers

Keep the posts coming!

I honestly think my next one will be a Panerai Luminor Marina. The following may be a Bentley.

I agree with previous post. Seawolf, on Pro II. Partial to yellow dial. Have fun.

I have to vote Panerai, simply because the styling "offsets" the typical Breitling look, offering a little variety. I also would second whomever mentioned the IWC Portugese; classic, although perhaps on the dressier side. Between the two, I would say Panerai, simply because you can change a strap and completely alter the identity of the piece.
