Here we go............. :mrgreen:
the mailman delivered at work today...most of you know why he delivered at work :D :D :D

Package came from my friend Precious Time from the UK, as always outstanding packaging job. Ordered this time piece 2 weeks ago, this is now order 37 from PT. As always, no complaints at all, PT does a good job. He delivers what he promises, great dealer.

Just a view words describing the watch.

Ceramic case is one of the best I have seen from a Rep.
AR is great, same reflection as on the Breitling Avenger Black Steel
Crown and pushers are Titanium
Dial is great, day and date fonts are like the original
The strap is not bad, I expected less
Can't say anything about the lume, havn't seen it in the dark, but first impression is that it is not bad. Holding my hands over it to emulate darkness.

Some pics have dust and fingerprints on it, please ingnore, just took the pics with my old camera during lunch time.

It would be worth it to swap to ETA 7750, a keeper. The watch could be worn as a dress watch or casual ............

Thanks guru, I always wanted to know the AR Quality of Breitling reps, and hearing from you, I am very assured now.

That's very nice.

I love the clean lines of the pilot watches.


Truthfully - doesn't the wife notice all the new watches busting out of the case?

Well the watch is a very attractive time piece. Keeping good time so far? I still am not hot on the "Top Gun" theme but the look of the watch is just what I like.
Wear it well Maverick!

Nice one, I am definitely an IWC fan :D
Looks too big for me however.
Will you change the strap, and if yes I'm curious about it...

Looks good. I saw one of those at the IWC boutique. They look even better in person :)
