I didn't do so well in college math, so help me out here.

I have a CCockpit on a strap, a Starliner, and a Chronomat Evolution on a bracelet.

Am I a full Ling? 1/2 Ling? No Ling?

:yeahthat

Not enough for full ling - definitely half ling.

I can't remember what the definition of 3/4 ling was so not sure if the Evo will get you that.

What I do know is that they are all Breitlings and that's enough 'ling for anyone :lol:

3/4 Ling is a Chronomat Evo on a bracelet I believe.. and if you add a diamond bezel on there you get 7/8 Ling.

A Half Ling is when you ruin a perfectly good Full Ling by putting it on a strap. :lol:

Surely a plane ride gives either 1/8 or 1/4 :?:

You can't total up Lings! Geez. EVERYONE knows that. ;)

I like to measure by how happy they make me. I have three full 'Lings. :nana:

My wife currently has two Breitlings, has sold two others. Below is the Cockpit Lady she sold (too small) and her two Callisto's (larger) and my Evo which she likes to wear also. It is on the croco now but I'll put it on bracelet again and take a wrist shot of her. What does the UTC module do to the kit? Give it another 1/4th? Hahahahahahaha!!
Best,
Ron

No, I'll never take pictures that are anything close to that good. Maybe these are better?

ijen,

As far as I'm concerned, that Evo automatically makes
you a Three-Quarter Linger. But I'm not one of the powers
that be, so they may have different standards. :?

Whoever asked if you've ever tried on a SA must be suffering
from dementia. After seeing how that Evo fills your wrist, I
think the only thing you could possibly do with a SA is to wear
it around your waist like a belt. Even then it might be too big. :)
Please forgive my silliness and again welcome to our crew.

Steve
