Any more watches for 2005?

Hi guys,

With just 4 months left in 2005, are any of you planning on adding more watches to your ever growing collection?

Me? Definitely not.....maybe some time in 2006 (don't ask me when) and it will most probably be the black dial Exp-II. But we'll just have to wait and see.

What about YOU??

That's going to depend on when the right Breitling Olympus at the right price comes along. It's gotta be a white face, preferably with leather strap (although I wil settle for the bracelet if I have to), in the $3K range. I'm in no hurry, so I can wait till the right one comes along.

Right now I'm still very happy with my SD, although I can see a black SS GMT II in my future somewhere. Not this year, though - I've got to get my business off the ground before making any large purchases.

Sorry JJ cannot answer that one, just missed a PO 45mm at the right price.
Its a little bit like asking how long is a piece of string mate.

Sorry to hear that, Peter, but could you elaborate a bit on the same. What do you mean when you say you missed a PO 45 mm at the right price?

What is your expectation of the right price for the PO in your neck of the woods and how come you missed out (bit of a shocker considering you're normally quick on the draw!! )
