I got an email from the AD this morning, and this is what it said, in part:
"Mark, I have to tell you, I see lots of watches day in and out, but when I just opened your Breitling box that landed on my desk this morning, I too got excited. This is a beauty. I plan to order next stock buy go around for my stores. You did well. Thanks for your patience, as will prepare to ship it for tomorrow delivery." |

STUNNING.
I LOVE THAT WATCH!!!! Sincere Congratulations Mate.... My Bank Manager's actually a bit of a WIS (fortunately!) & he has a 'Chronomat Evolution', & the detailing on that is almost breathtaking..... but YOUR B-01 IS BETTER!!!! When I've got the two Rolex's I've promised myself I'll get as 'inheritance pieces' for my boys this year I'd seriously consider saving up for onea these for myself. Honestly..... I'm stunned & I know it'll look even better in the flesh. Good for You friend...... p.s. GREAT call on the strap too.....

Thanks everyone! As I said, I'll post the whole "package" tomorrow, once I upload them to my Mac.
Dan, the "detailing" on this watch it unbelievable!!! Talk about getting more bang for your buck! |

I've often heard snidey comments like "Ave Centurion!" or whatever when it comes to Breitlings with gold Roman's, but the leather? strap & the modern bezel just sooooooo 'calm your B-01 down' if that makes any sense? & not that it needed it but they kinda 'butch it up' a bit too IMO? I've gotta coupla DJII's on order at an AD's which are due the end of this month. While I'm there I'm gonna take a look at this beauty in the flesh. As much as I love Rolex & I've missed wearing them sooooooooooo badly since I had to sell them, I will admit that the more detailed Breitlings, as well as the Omega PO's still suck me in..... Serious Congratulations again Mark. A truly great call IMO!
