  1. my deepest condolences, losing a family member/friend is one of life's most difficult processes. stay strong......
  2. I would be in for two, I did sign up for the last run, but never saw my name posted to the run. No big deal......
  3. Wow!!! Great Pic, nothing sexier than a breitling combined with a lady (man I need a life!!)
  4. I am speechless, perhaps the most stunning Breitling I have seen!!!! Excellent Purchase!!!
  5. Actually, I would see if you could get the blue BCE with a regular bezel and pay extra for the CZ one in case you want to replace it. Aftter what I have seen with the blackbird (i.e. Off center pearl, lightly stamped directional markers) it seems that there is a little way to go before that is a must have rep. But darn that blue dial, it has me buzzing right now!!!!! Edit: sorry, just noticed you did not want the bling bling bezel. regardless, I would go with the bce - very few, if any, flaws remain to be fixed at this point.
  6. HOLY CRAP! I stand corrected and I like it, but I wonder where he got it? I mostly stick to the dealers around here and have yet to see anything like that on their sites. Perhaps that would be my 5th bce? Thanks for posting that.
  7. I have yet to see the blue dial in the Ultimate version. I know andrew and Josh have it in the first versions of the watch, but thats about it. It is pretty nice in the two tone ulitmate version, the blue seems really electric. And I know what you mean about the BCE, Im working on picking up a fourth myself.
  8. Great Review, I have been sitting on the fence about this one, but now Im leaning towards purchasing it.
  9. Please continue to post more of your reviews and how-to's......this is probably the 5th or 6th time I have read this review since you posted it. Great Job!!!
  10. toad, keep em coming, we need more action like this in the loony bin!!!!!!
  11. Been some time since I had this on my wrist, and now that its back on, I dont think its coming off anytime soon!!
  12. Ahh the Seawolf....my first Breit rep, and still one of my favorites. I have had this for over two years with no issues and the gen dial swap was a breeze. As Hyster has shown, it looks even better on the gen rubber strap. Nice pics!! EDIT: Forgot to mention, I kept the rep inner bezel on as the gen was too short and it looked odd.
  13. Please count me in for a dial if there is still room.
  14. Today, going with the TT Chronomat Evolution set against my home office background - Downtown Miami skyline. Tonight, Bentley GT with Chieftang's double AR crystal
  15. My signature probably tells you what niche I fall into.....
  16. Navitimer GMT Blue Dial with AR coating from Chieftang, black leather deployant........... Trying to Capture the AR.........maybe not....
  17. Great Review Usil, as you can see from my signature, I have been bit by the Breitling Bug as well...... I highly recommend the AR coating that is done in groups here, I took 5 of my Breitling crystals and had it done and all I can say is that I often catch myself staring at the watch on my wrist to see that beautiful blue hue the AR adds. Give it a try, you wont be sorry.
  18. As noted in my signature, I have a rather large Breitling collection. I recently sent 5 Breit crystals to Chieftang for A/R Coating and was very impressed with the results. Unfortunately, upon re-installation of the crystals, my watchsmith has left me with less than impressive results. On my Serie Speciale and TT Navi, the bezel spins freely now where once there was ample friction. Apparently, he removed the bezel to remove the crystals and doing so broke a part inside the bezel that used to provide this friction. Here is a diagram of the broken part as described to me by my watchsmith. He said it was essentially a "bezel fastener" that held the bezel to the watch. It is a thin piece of metal that rests under the bezel and white inner bezel. What I am looking for is a picture of this part if anyone might have one. I have contacted Trusty for information about replacement parts, and he has told me he needs a picture of the actual part, my sorry diagram will not do. I would have been able to do this if my watch guy didnt throw the broken part away, but unfortunately he did. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. I dont want to order two new cases, but if I cant find a picture of this part, I may have to do so.
  19. sorry, signed in under the wrong SN (never use that one). anyways, I would like to be put down for 5 crystals. Thanks!!!
  20. getting in on this as well............
  21. yes......Arsene unleashed the beast....
