Walked in with a GMT II 16710 and walked out with a Datora.
Well last week I got my GMT II back from the RSC. Something kept bugging me though, the bezel inset was off by half a click. So today I ran it up to the AD. While waiting for the watchmaker to decide if it needed to go back to the rsc I started looking around. At the breitling counter I saw the Datora for the first time in real life. Needless to say I have been a frequent flyer in the AD and bought a pile of rollies in the last few months and when the owner came up he said there is a story to that watch followed by something I hate to hear I will take care of you on it. Long story short they sent the GMT II back to Rolex, I put my speedy (which I had in case they were sending my GMT to the rsc) back in my pocket and said done. I have been on the fence about the Daytona and it actually does not do it for me, but I love chronographs and this watch has everything. Month, Date, Day, 24hr hand and a chronograph to boot. Anyhow I have punched my Breitling ticket and couldn't be happier.

Incoming and Energized!!!
and happy to finely join the club (it's only taken 22 years)!!! Thanks to all!!! Special thanks to Joshua at Govberg in Philadelphia for a truly wonderful AD experience- !!!!! Highest recommendation!!!!

5980 - photos and first impressions
As promised a couple of photos of my new 5980. I'd also like to share a few thoughts so far.Chronographs are my favourite complication, not because they are the most useful (I rarely need to time anything) but I enjoy them being active insofar as I can engage with the chronograph rather than being passive. The 5980 has been my grail watch since I first saw it, and was a watch I was aspiring to own a few years down the line. However when I read that it was being discontinued it was a case of now or never for a brand new one from an AD. Getting it now meant selling my SS Daytona, Seadweller and Sub LV - these were watches I did not think I would EVER sell so the 5980 has a lot to live up to. Fortunately I am happy to say it is meeting, if not surpassing my expectations. Some of my highlights from my brief ownership so far are as follows:I like my watches on bracelets, and I think the bracelet on the 5980 (and no doubt the 5711) is simply beautiful. I have heard it said that the bracelet
