My first Breitling is on it's way right now. I look forward to getting it and posting my picture up here. Already looking for my second one and my 1st Panerai. This is a slippery slop I'm about to fall down. lol.

Hi Pix!
..Thanks for the info, I didn´t know about this dumb spelling on the Colt Chrono!
However, I was really talking about the NON-chrono version, that is the one I would like to buy, since the chrono Colt never attracted me. Is the NON-Chrono Colt dumb made too? Or is it worth a shot?
Thanks bro!
@ x4
You´re gonna get a PM just right now, fella
...I want to see some more pics of that beauty!
Cheers,
Spirit.
Hi Spirit,
what I saw on the non chrono version looks right. In fact I was not aware that the latter existed. But discovering it now, I wonder if its close aspect to the SFSO is not the reason. Its size (41mm) could be an advantage for some of us however.
Here's the chono flaw. It's quartz, so if they ever rep the auto one we might be lucky and I would be in, especially for this white/blue version.

Yachymetre - lol!
I'm not too experienced in this field but is that kind of thing usual? I mean how hard can it be to spell a word correctly that you're reading off of a picture.
But I shouldn't be too surprised really, I've spent some time in GZ and they are hopeless at spelling when copying clothes and such. Just look at examples like "Adibas" "Hugo Bsos" or "Spoony" instead of Snoopy. I mean wtf..

Worst is when there's a spelling mistake on the Brand itself indeed...
But imagine you had to copy chinese pictograms... Maybe a very small difference could at the end mean something totally different.
If the manufacturers had a basic QC, these things would not happen (like reversed datewheel on the Oris or 1000 Ailgam on the Mille Miglia).
And I go particularly nuts when the rep is well executed, and spoilt by such a dumb mistake... As you mentionned : hopeless.

WOW!! :shock:
Those are some beautiful watches Jiro.
Especially love the blue faced BCE, (V3 with either V1 or GEN dial i'm guessing)
