Navitimer "joining the Breitling ranks soon"

I just put a Navitimer World on layaway. I intend to pick it up soon. The 46mm diameter dial is larger than anything else I currently have. Thats part of the reason I like it. The whole look of the dial with the slide rule function and red GMT hand is why I fell so hard for it.

Ah the wait begins, the sweet feeling of anticipation........................

Dan,
My local Breitling AD (a guy who has become a pretty good personal friend of mine over the last two years), just got his own Navitimer World. He had been waiting to get one as part of Breitling's incentive program for dealers. It is a beautiful watch. Very impressive presence on the wrist. There are a handful of Breitlings that really get my attention, and this is one of them. Congrats and I hope you love it. Aslo, you're going to be pleasantly surprised by some of the "goodies" that will start randomly showing up from Breitling after you register your watch.

Thanks Chris, it just grabbed my attention right from the moment I saw it.

Thats what I thought initially, but wears real well forme. In fact I originally thought about getting the regular Navitimer,just for that reason. However when comparing it to the regular version the Navitimer World won hands down in my book.
