Breitling for Bentley Motors Mark VI
Hey i just bought a used Breitling Mark VI with a Blue Dial. To me its the most beatiful breitling watch ever. Anyone know why Breitling Discontiued the Mark Series?.I bought it used for $3900. I Took it to Breitling For Service. Cost Another $1200 With Complete Overhaul, 2 Links and a New Cristal.Glad i bought it used. I can only image this watch used to cost $14,000 Brand New.

What year is this watch...?
Searching on the internet there seems to be some inconsistencies regarding dates & serial numbers. I even wrote Omega in Switzerland and they were evasive in their 'non-answer'.Any seasoned veterans have a take on my info?Model No. 2255.80Serial No. (on rear lug) 80528xxxThanks!

Somethin' to tide me over...
... while looking for the perfect vintage Constellation. It was an Ebay Buy It Now and not much money. I'm taking it to our watchmaker Monday for a good cleaning. It's got a cal. 351 bumper movement - and it's in better shape than I expected. Um, hope it's real.These pics are also posted in today's WRUW thread...

Did I make the right decision on my first Rolex?
I recently set out on my journey to find my first Rolex. For the last few years (I'm 27) I've owned 2 fashion watches that had a great deal of meaning to me (college graduation, first big boy job) but ultimately, they're just fashion watches. I'll cherish them for what they represent to me forever, but I needed a real watch.I set out on my journey, and evaluated most of the Rolex lineup. I crossed off a few:- Submariner (too big, not fitting to a nice suit)- Air King (too entry-level, I want a nice timeless piece)- Datejust/DJ II (again, a nice starter for most, but I like something with a bit more 'pop')- Yachtmaster (too big/chunky/busy, not fitting to a nice suit)- GMT (see: submariner)- See dweller (At this point, I realized I wasn't fond of the thicker sport bezels)Now that I'm done offending nearly everyone, I landed on two that stuck out to me:Daytona. I'm a car geek, and will be acquiring a Ferrari 458 Italia in the next few months. I really liked the yellow face to match Ferra
