Horological Meandering

Last night some friends payed me a visit at the double birthday-party of me and my daughter .... Let's see what came out of the BOX ... ... Unfortunately i could not keep it ... This new Superocean really appeals ... At 42 mm it's not overdone and finish-...  

The Breitling is a chunky piece, very legible and with some charm, of course, but your LLD is playing in another league. Normal, this is YOUR watch! Best, my friend. Nicolas

I'd prefer the LLD by far but was amazed by this Superocean ... for once a Breitling with the right (42 mm) size ... Ze Bim

41 and still going ... .... .

Happy birthday Filip. I was born on the same day as my father, so what a delightful present for you that your daughter was born on your birthday as well. Was the Breitling a complete surprise, or had you requested this model? A bold and striking sports wa... 

... i couldn't keep the watch ... it was a practical joke by a friend who just purchased it ... instead i got some maintenace tools for the garden (he knows i never work in the garden ... LOL ...). Thanks, Filip

(un)fortunately i turned 41 :-( .... so i've been drinking for 25 years now here in Belgium. Filip

... which might be due to the high quality finish offered at a good price. But I consider its dial design grossly unbalanced, dislike the poor luminous legibility, better: the poor placement of the luminous elements, and think it looks too bulky for my ta... 

... strange ... Because it's a Breitling it already is very popular amongst the masses ... I liked the bulky design, even for my small wrist, but maybe a bit smaller and lesses diameter (40?) would work better. The dial indeed is a bit "special" , i think...
