<RJ> 0 Posted May 25, 2012 I sold off my Ap chrono (Just not me) and destroyed my colt chrono so i need a new one and i am planning a custom made darker leather strap so it would be neat if the chrono could marry that one. I don't like to hoard and that takes some more qualified deciding. I have lurked around the IWCs, TAGs, Hublos etc.. Im not entirely sure why i return to Breitling all the time. Maybe just because i feel i can pull them off in a good way Omegas are also nice. So many choices So far im down to these in the first round of deciding: Those mesh bracelets are cool! <<<< Nice!? And then there are all the colts, Avengers and so on.... Other than AP i cant dig up more choices, Need some sleep i think! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffw69 0 Posted May 26, 2012 I am not really in to chronos on a Breit. I like my dials simple on those. How about the IWC Aquatimer Cousteau Diver? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

<RJ> 0 Posted May 26, 2012 Thanks dudes, Ive almost pulled the trigger in the first one a couple of times already. I will read up some more on the iwc it would be grate to have a new brand. Can they make that day date compilation work for less than $300, Hmm. Some more interesting reading to do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaykay 0 Posted May 26, 2012 Agree on the IWC, but if you want a bigger one the SOH Chrono is nice too. Bit too flashy for my taste (I know most will disagree). Other option for me would be this: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

<RJ> 0 Posted May 27, 2012 Ive been wearing my white Héritage non chrono today and as always i am stunned about how well it wears even though its huge according to my references. I will start to locate a version i feel good about. First mail goes to Rochest. Some pictures ive seen have these cone like pushers. I have bad feelings about these or might there be pushers like that on some gens also. Lets se what Rochest can dig up for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

<RJ> 0 Posted May 31, 2012 awesome! you will love it!! My rubber strap still smells like vanilla after two years. ha. Im sure I was abit disturbed at the end of the order process though and ended up with black leather. My initial plan was to order a custom made strap for this beauty and while waiting for it try the mesh. But one thing led to another and i ended up with black leather.

<RJ> 0 Posted June 23, 2012 Here are some pics of the beauty, Atm I have it on the light brown leather. I think i need to try a thick strap with this one, Like 7mm. I believe it will be very nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
