It’s not a brand the folks here in the bowl care much about, but I love my Super Ocean II Chrono.

Feels even better than it looks

I like some of their more muted designs, but they're all too large. The brand needs to create some 40mm and smaller versions.

OP, I considered that Breitling a few years ago but never pulled the trigger. I could find them for heavy discounts, which I think is what was really the only reason that they were tempting. They have good design, but heavily polished, and typically a little large.

Totally agree - I was a little nervous about how shiny it was going to be in person. It sits nicely under my shirt cuff so I’ve only had a few people notice.

Before wasn’t a fan, but now - absolutely love them. Love how they can be Breitling and proud.
Looks amazing in your Lexus G, btw. Am a fellow Lexus driver and fan.

Nice choice OP! Great watch but Breitling Complete Service could use some improvement.

Had to send my watch back 3x because they did not fix the issue with the power reserve. Manager was unapologetic and did not offer anything for my troubles.

Breitlings generally aren’t for me. As pilot watches, most Breitlings are oversized. While I’m sure the craftsmanship and mechanics of the watches are great, I’ve never been a fan of the oversized aesthetic. Oversized watches just seem a bit tacky IMO. The one you’ve got there looks nice, not too big.

Thanks! I agree with you on that most of them are pretty oversized - thats part of what drew me to this one 👍

I just bought an Alexa for my grandma's birthday. Her old radio broke and she's been kind of sad because she can't listen to her favorite music anymore while cooking, so I thought this would be a good pick. She'll have her favorite music right there.

Later today my grandpa tells me she's not been asking Alexa for her favorite music, but for her radio stations instead 😭😂

Hello lovely people. I need your recommendation. I have decided to reward myself for my accomplishments (paying student loans, supporting parents, past promo’s etc) by buying my 1st luxury watch on my 30th this year. Budget 10-12k.

What would you recommend me to get? I was thinking a two tone Datejust or a pair like (omega/Cartier/JJL)

Really excited to hear your recs! Thank you! 😊

My in-laws used to own a jewelry store, and they had this Omega quartz watch in their storage. I can understand why this wasn’t sold during their clearance sale lol.

I see them on eBay for $700-1200, so who knows…
