Sometimes there is a lot of pressure at work. In fact, my last watch imploded in a high pressure meeting. This classic Breitling in yellow can handle up to 3000M / 10000FT of pressure, sure to survive any future meetings! :)

congras .. that model was my first breitling, and first luxury watch purchase ..

i still love that watch today, if one day you want to make it "lighter" i recommend a canvas strap.

I love that this watch looks better the longer you wear it .. the dings and scratches add character. -- i never worry about wearing it while i do any kind of manual work.

I have a few straps on order as I wanted it to be a bit more casual!

Taking the SS bracelet off that watch is a bear.. putting it back on is nearly impossible without proper tools
