My new watch!

Hey everyone!


I have traded in my 1 month old Breitling SuperOcean Steelfish and come home with this beauty! I decided to go with the Chronomat Evolution, I have lusted for this watch for a long time and decided its about time I owned one..


I'm not going to be a tease and keep you all waiting as I have done in the past..


Here she is!! (Yes correct Eric mate... SHE)

.. And HERE she is!!!!




045 by goold1, on Flickr



047 by goold1, on Flickr



048 by goold1, on Flickr



Sorry for the shocking camera quality, I'm that exited about the watch I just took some quick pix for you to see... More to follow later!!



-Dino

Surprisingly understated!

My Bank Mager wears a Chronomat Evolution & they're a helluva watch....

Congratulations Dino.
