First, I found this beautiful Breguet 3820 Type XX Transatlantique. I have always wanted to try this bird but never found the right one and on bracelet. The brand is rich in history and the attention to details is nothing short of spectacular. The bracelet version on wrist feels very integrated, oozes class and just super fun to rock doing outdoor activity or just simply, washing our hands frequently. I can't wait to buy a few gators and rock it on a deployant buckle. Few quick shots to share here:

Naturally, this is a Rolex forum and the gravitational pull was too strong even for a tough guy like me. As soon as I tried to stray away from the brand, it sucked me right back in. I have always been an oyster bracelet kind of guy and never thought jubilee would be this sleek and this comfortable. For me, black and blue is just too bang on sexy and naturally, 126710BLNR arrived. I needed at least one ceramic in the collection so I think this is a fine choice :-)

So yeah.. over the moon here and some things never get old and nothing is better than a nice incoming or two to light up our days

Congrats Fred!

What a Duo you got here. Love the Braguet design and tall date window.
The BLNR needs no comment. Congrats.

Thanks guys! This has definitely been one of the better incoming days for sure. Both pieces are truly awesome! I think I am good for a while!

Nice pickups!

Thanks Wayne, Chuck and friends!

Surprisingly, Breguet is grabbing really good wrist time right now. The dome makes it speical.

That 3820 is drop dead sexy!! Love that domed crystal. I had not heard of that brand before.

I like to see a bit of variety in a collection. Shows a thinking man!

Thanks Stu.

Zenith El Primero Chronometre Moonphase is another great one in a famed movement, great brand, killer wrist presence and without a "great" price catagory
