Del 4,461 Posted May 25, 2011 So, surprise surprise, I bought another Breitling recently! I know, I know, I need help and all that but it was an offer I couldn't refuse - one of Robert's high quality quartz Chronomat B01s from grb, that great secondhand rep dealer! I say "secondhand" but this Chronomat is essentially brand new, and only cost me $90 delivered. Ok, so it isn't the most accurate Breitling rep I've got, but that shouldn't (and doesn't) detract from what is a stunning watch. When wearing it yesterday, it continually caught my eye with it's polished s/s case and polished stick hour markers. Even the subdials with their "half-in-half" textures are a joy to behold! As you will see below, the watch came on a black leather strap rather than the polished s/s bracelet and that suited me perfectly too as I'm not a big fan of a fully polished s/s bracelet, and it suits the watch too imho. All in all, this is a superb watch and I'm already looking forward to wearing it again soon! And now to the pics.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeNnY 29 Posted May 25, 2011 hohoo, your wife is going to kill you ! But nevermind that, the watch is perfect ! Fromt he word hiquality quartz, you mean the large second hand is sweeping ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silverspeed 10 Posted May 25, 2011 That looks great....looks like the same case etc as the 7750 version beautiful dial on it too....and much less a sunken datewheel then on the 7750 very nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prestigewatchco 2 Posted May 25, 2011 yes I have sold a pile of these they really are great for the money and the dial is better than the 7750 IMO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,461 Posted May 25, 2011 Thanks everyone! Just in case I didn't get it across the first time, I am blown away with how nice this watch is! If you like Breitlings, I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this from Robert. @ Kenny - small running (ticking) seconds at 6. The large second hand is the chrono only.

GC 4,489 Posted May 25, 2011 Oh Del... now i have to add another watch to my wish list Since my Hublot & AP quartz I am a big fan of the opting for quartz when it comes to a chrono watch! This is a prime example of a winning watch!!! Stunning wristie shots too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,461 Posted May 25, 2011 Thanks GC Yes, the wristie shot is my favourite too - I took about 20 wrist shots before getting the right lighting and without having my ugly mug reflected in the crystal! This watch was a bit of a bugger to photograph actually, plus I took the desk shots rather quickly but I think they just about work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gB. 0 Posted May 25, 2011 Looks great Del! Is this the sales thread from Robert for this version? Looks the same, but hard to tell from the pics of the black dial. I think Robert will be getting a few more orders for these. http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...showtopic=11245 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
