WristScan

. . . recently in Vegas. Let's see the heavyweights . . . . . . in your collections. ...  

I know that this watch is not that popular here but what I can do? I like it. I know that the movement is pedestrian but I love the macho look, even with 42mm. Let's see the pictures: 1) Wrist shot. I put a very thick leather strap (The bracelet is too sh...

In special to watches. Sometimes I succeed by persuading my friends about a brand, sometimes I fail. My most recent victory was when I acquired a Girard Perregaux and all my friends disagree. Later they started paying attention to the brand and GP is in h...

normally I chime with the "oh-no Breitling" chorus. I think this is the first Breitling I've seen where my first reaction was, nice watch. And when I look a little closer I think I really like it. Maybe even enough reason to stop by the Breitling stand at... 

My Breitling or should I say "No Breitling" reaction may be derived from those steel with touches of gold that they produced during the 90's. Recently they produced a very nice in house chrono movement and this Superocean exudes good design and amazing qu... 

I agree with you there Nilo. I really like Breitlings, but i absolutely hate the Chronomat with its gold bits on the bezel. G

I didn't know you hunted this one as well - we share many dreams, my friend. I picked this up at the start of the summer and have been digging hard into it's history. It has a few secrets to tell I think. For sure I will bring it with me for when we next ...
