It seems there a couple of guys who want to buy it, so hopefully it'll be a matter of 'when' not 'if'...
well done to whoever gets it, lovely watch

A cw! Surely not but I really fancy the look of this. Shame the black red combo is only available in the expensive cosc option
Cheers now, Paul

^^^ Nice Watch, and I think I prefer it on the bracelet (from pictures, at least). The strap looks very tapered, and - due to steel piece in the lug connection - a little too narrow? Maybe it looks fine in real life.

Why do we drive ourselves nuts looking for another watch we don't need and that we shouldn't be spending money on. Spured on by Grahams recent addition and my love for Brietling (I had a Brietling colt for 20 years before stupidly selling it) I'm now dreaming of one if these.

Mark I've had those same thoughts recently. Preorder a scurfa as I decided I needed a quartz grab and go and fancied a diver. Now with circumstances changing at home might have some spare money for a few months and thinking of these. But a new sofa is far more sensible

a sofa can't tell you what time it is. and it won't leave the house with you. i vote Sinning.
what do you think of the 3 LE versions of the 556i?
the "g" is for Greg...

Neil, for what it's worth I vote sinning too. ^^^ love the comment about a sofa not leaving the house with you
My good lady is dreaming about new carpets. However I am no longer dreaming about the Brietling above

If the current sofa gives back pain or looks super 80s shoddy ( like our first hand me down sofa) then buy the sofa. If it looks nice though and just needs need sponge get down to Dunelm mill for that and buy the watch
I miss all the great things that may never be.

I think I should put the same questions sofa or sinn on mumsnet and set how that goes down! Think I'd get shot down straight away
I like the LE but they look a little dressy for me
New carpets might be needed as well I won't mention that at home. Mark does that mean the breitling is on it's way or already received?
Main issue with the current sofa is the size, comfort and looks are ok. Really should look at a sofa for domestic harmony...

I have the white one on the way. With brown strap.
Although now I have the opportunity to buy a second hand (July17) blue version on bracelet for slightly less money.
Now I'm in a quandry
