Looks like I've joined the Breitling club!
Just purchased my first Breitling this evening. A nice Aerospace with a UTC. I have always been attracted to the Aerospace and the Emergency for purely aesthetic and technology reasons. The UTC was something else that set it apart on this timepiece.
Better images later. Tell me what you think.

Thanks for the kind comments all!
Now, I have had it about 5 days and will say that this timepiece is most definitely the most comfortable watch I have ever worn. Hardly know it is on the wrist. I will be keeping this one for a while. Nice to have 3 time zones also as well as all the other features of a digital. Countdown timer, day / seconds, chrono, alarm, and so forth. And the UTC certainly draws the attention. The design of the combination is lovely. Breitling most certainly did their research on this one prior to putting it on the market.
