I just this one early this month. Nice trade with local collector. My navi is one of the classic watches that was missing in my collection. I have been contemplating giving it to my best friend who is in love in this particular model.

Ha! Was it at a boutique or elsewhere?
Probably not the right thread or forum, Mods please move/suggest appropriately, but in this case of non-Rolex purchases in Vegas, and in the era of eBay, are pawn shops around there a worthwhile treasure hunt to try to find sub-$5k divers or sport watches?

Oh yeah. In my opinion the old model Steelfish SuperOcean is among the nicest diver watches ever.

Here's my Breitling review.

I have a Chronomat ... it doesn't get a ton of wrist time but it's sentimental and I still love it. Graphite dial with Graphite sub-dials ...

A couple of each in fact

The Cosmonaute was my first "nice" watch, and it'll never go anywhere, so resale values of no concern. Technologically I think some of the newer Rolex offerings are probably a bit more advanced, but if you're looking in the "Young-timer" vintage market I think they are very comparable. The 5 row Fighter bracelet is every bit as comfortable as the Oysters on my GMT/Daytona/TC.

As for busy dials, there are a lot of dials in the Breitling catalog that are easier to read then a YMII! Buy and wear what you love!

I still have a few Breits that don't get worn much anymore, more so due to the fact that I wear dress shirts more often now and I find the Breitlings to be too thick at work.

Breitling & Rolex

After many years of being an avid Breitling fan I recently purchased my first ever Rolex, an Explorer 11 Polar White. I still love my Aerospace the best though W18W5083_5 (1).JPG

I have a black dialed steelfish that I bought as my first automatic watch and I love it even more today than when I picked it up 10 years ago.

My LE Blackbird gets as much wear on its pilot bracelet as it does the oem rubber dive strap.
