Bought my first Breitling about 4 weeks ago, ever since then I've been looking at them on ebay and I'm seriously hooked on the idea of getting another one! Seriously, I think its an addiction!

I'm considering an Emergency Mission, its a nice looking watch which would fit nicely into my lifestyle (offshore boating and a fair amount of flying).

So all I need to do now is sell the wifes Grand Cherokee and convince her to take up cycling... Or I could scrap the new central heating plan and learn to love the cold!

Image Do you know how much bicycles cost? Walking is a much cheaper alternative. Save the money and buy more Breitlings? :lol:

Yes it is an addiction!

Cheers

It's completely normal. I haven't even received delivery on my second one, and I'm already eyeing a 3rd. Oh by the way, I told my wife that 2nd one would be the last.

You'll need to spin the sale of your wife's car a little bit better. If you're selling it just for cash for a watch for you, she'll never go for it. There has to be something in it for her - tell her that riding a bike or walking will give her a great way to lose a couple of lbs. That should TOTALLY work. :lol:

After the divorce proceedings wrap up, if you don't have a crusher of an alimony payment there'll be more cash lying around for watches. So it's win-win.... right? :lol: :lol:

If you never hear from me again, my wife (who I love dearly and has partial control over my watch budget) read this post. :mrgreen:
