JohnG Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Here are a couple of pics of the SOSF - it is very nice and I am thrilled with it. My first Breitling and it weighs a ton... A very nice watch for the money and everyone who sees it says it is a very nice watch. I haven't taken it off for two days. There is a problem with the GMT - loose bezel - and I will be sending it back to Neil. Will let you all know how that goes. Here are the pics! I will post a few more tomorrow. Just wanted to get something up there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnG Posted November 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 You are thrilled with it,but will be sending it back to him..... So much for that wonderfull QC he does.... Two different watches, but yeah, a little disappointed. SOSF = thrilled. GMTIIc = not so thrilled. BTW, thanks for congratulating me on stepping up to a Breitling. I thought you would be thrilled for me. But nah, just your regular grumpy self... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demsey Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Nice. Have you gotten it wet yet? What happened to, was wrong with, the GMT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demsey Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Have you sent it back yet? It is one of the easiest fixes. TTK would probably do it himself in about 15 minutes. A waste of shipping really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A waste of shipping really. Not yet, but it also has some kind of oily residue on the inside of the crystal... I Skyped him and waiting to see what he suggests... Alpha is right - brass balls baby!

trailboss Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 'Cause John likes life in the fast lane. It's all to easy with the aforementioned dealers. Nice watch mate. I thought it was gold too. Needs a rubber strap. A few of there Breits are begining to grow on me, particualy the steel fish and the herritage. Col.

greg_r Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Josh... The thing I hear most often about Josh is, "Josh will make it right!" Strange but true... the only watch I've ever had a problem with came from Josh... Sure, he sorted it out with minimum hassle, but...
