I can do 6. And you might want to post a pointer thread in a higher visibility area (like the general board), letting people know about this thread. And add a link to your signatures, for even greater visibility.

No problems waiting for me

Both sides for Breitlings.

That's great, you deserve it!

Probably the wife with the ice mentioned above.

024A transitional, still one of my faves:

That is GREAT, I didn't know that

Yeah, I'd be in for a 42mm as well, especially since I tried on the HBB and it's too big for me, so that frees up $$. That and a yellow dial Ferrari Panerai with working black chrono's will just about round out my collection.

You could do what I do - unscrew the back & remove the bracelet, remove the movement, put the watch case inside a thick sock, wedge the watch at a 45 degree angle between your floor and one of your walls, then use a hammer to tap out the crystal from the inside. The sock will keep the crystal fairly safe, as long as you don't use excessive force. Primitive, but it works fine.

I also have a navitimer on the way, so if it gets here before the deadline, I'll actually have 6 crystals to send in, not 5 as stated in my previous post.

SMP Chrono - figure I'll wear it before pop off the crystal and send it in to chieftang to get a true AR coating:

I've got 5 for single sided AR coating - 2 with date windows, 3 without date windows.

Inge:

Picked up a Breitling Bentley GT from Eddie, needed a red accented watch, to go with the orange PO, blue Seamaster, and various white and black dial watches I already have (Panerai & IWC). Now I just need to get a green accented one (Rlx, maybe), and a Yellow one (if they ever come out with a super good copy Pan Ferrari dual register chrono in yellow & black I'll be all over it). Anyway, here's the Breitling, currently my most bling watch:

SMP Chrono finally pushed both the PO and Inge into the watch box:

No special conditioning needed, as those straps are absolutely saturated with conditioner already. Usually there will be a waxy white "leakage" over time, it's just some of the conditioning rising to the surface. Just buff lightly with a soft cloth to restore the shine and luster. Great, great straps, I have about 10 and I love all of them.

Inge finally muscled the Omega's off my wrist:

"He went to Jared." God I hate thos f-ing commercials.

Mine is the "Ultimate" from Joshua. It's just the angle, look at the other pics.

Added some more table shots with different watches.

Added some pics of the metal strap collection, including the new SMP and PO.

I only wear 1 watch while out in public, but wear 2 watches when alone. I think I need a new category

As has been noted in the past, the vast majority of people don't know much/anything about watches, so wearing an IWC, Omega, Panerai, etc, will have no impact on you or them. But, there are a few people out there that do know about watches and will judge you based on your watch (and other clothes as well). I find this particularly abhorrent, and I refuse to buy a gen to fit into their little "club". I'd much rather buy a good rep and wear it as a means of subverting the entire structure of that "club". In other words, wearing a good rep is my way of giving a big middle finger right up the @ss of those pretentious jerks.

The wrist shots appear to have a gap only because my wrist is so small, causing the links to drop straight down instead of flaring out before wrapping around.

Ultimate PO, of course:
