mostling 40 Posted May 11, 2012 So got my first Breitling today and can only say that i'm really pleased with it, maybe a tad small but it'll do. Plans are to get the Ocean Racer strap with deployant, too bad there ain't a rep with the right 20/18 meassurments, so gonna have to get the 22/20 and trim 1mm on each side of it to fit the lugs, secondly maybe but just maybe have it relumed but not sure about that one yet. Some quick pics for now, will be taking more when lighting is more favourable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bobbylah 135 Posted May 11, 2012 Very nice. Just about to pull the trigger myself on this one. What movement did you get? I know that Silix has the 21j for $92. I asked about the OR strap and it was stated that they are out of stock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnG 41 Posted May 11, 2012 I have loved this watch since I first saw it, gonna have to break down and get one one of these days. And that is saying a lot since I think it has been a year since I bought my last rep.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digger2 0 Posted May 11, 2012 I ordered one the other day when I got a 20 USD "coupon" from Mark for another deal, great watch! I will not get mine relumed after seeing what happened to Dels watch, I think the markers are very fragile. Bobbylah: 92 USD for this watch if it is the same chassis, lume and sapphire crystal must be the bargain of the year, didn't know that and I don't find it on his site, do you have a link?

I just emailed Michelle and asked the question. Did not get much of a response when asking for pics, just a note that said 'That is new model ,so can not see in my webiste . IMy factory said it is the same as your photo .i can sent the QC pcs before ship . Any question ,let me know .' Guess you would not find out until you saw these. Hopefully the price diff. is solely due to the movement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulro 2 Posted May 21, 2012 Hi Mostling. This is lovely I had a meeting today and I'd say the guy had a gen one. I know they're not that expensive but for me they are a good looking watch.. Who is this one from? I see you can get the sw200 movt. From where/Do you know? Anyway, nice pics. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alistairw 0 Posted May 31, 2012 Got mine from Puretime, it's gets a lot of wrist time. Wish I had it all those years ago when I was a single bloke I'm sure it would have been a great chic magnet!! It's a sensational watch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
