JLC in a heartbeat. It's got a MUCH better movement and is less bling but more bang.

Neither for me.

To be helpful to you...I'd go with the JLC if I was forced to choose.

The Breitling looks too blingy. My vote is for JLC ~

They are not my cup of tea either, but I do like the JLC however I greatly prefer bracelets and I happen to really like the implementation Breitling offers.

Does that help? lol

Compared to the old style ETA Breitlings, yes...but if this is one of the new in-house movements, that's a different story, those are quite good.

Still, I'd go for the MC between these two.

JLC no question.
Agreed, it's in a league above that tacky blinging Breitling
