I love it thanks Guy. It's comfortable and it was exactly the look I wanted. I think the style and, particularly the colour, are very well suited to the watch.

Having had some "dark thoughts" about my Speedy this week (caused by Daytona-love) I decided to try it this morning - and quickly came to my senses. This one is going nowhere!

Good decision Richard. Whilst I can see your desire to put the Universe back into equilibrium, there's absolutely no need to take the whole responsibility on your own shoulders. After all, God did give us Superman, Batman, Thor, the Hulk, Captain America and Wonderwoman specifically for that! :D

I have to say I am not a fan of Breitlings in general and was taken back at your recent addition and departure Graham.....
But I must say this latest photo does show it off well mate !

It's more about bank-balance equilibrium than anything else. :lol:

However, I remain optimistic about impending sales on the IWC and AT, and the TN has sold, so it's all ok. Just need to decide about one or two more.

Good call. Every collection needs at least a couple of chronographs. A utilitarian Speedy works well as a counterpoint to the higher end Daytona. :)

In that case, the above mentioned superheroes aren't much use I'm afraid. Sorry.

Purchased a Geckota solid-link oyster bracelet for my Seiko 7025 and fitted it last night which proved a complete and utter PITA. Was tough manipulating the hollow end links and springbars, but the end result is about as perfect as I could have hoped for.

I also gave the crystal a polish with a combo of toothpaste and brasso to get rid of the hairline scratches. Could do with a little more tlc, but I'm really pleased with the outcome and now I don't feel the need to re-purchase a SARB035 :thumbup:
