Thanks. First pic on the phone through tapatalk. Assume it didn't go well and the quality is poor - will take a look later on proper computer.
PS Fab watch! I had the custard Seawolf, and stupidly sold it. I still miss that crazy watch!
I'm appreciating this as my first watch and maybe not my last like them superoceans aswell lol
Thought I'd pop it in here for us breitling lovers, need to get some nice shots of it
Been wearing this all day really enjoying this one.
and
Love this. Looks double hard.Dislike many, love a few.
Love the whiteHere are the three that I own. Latest one first. There are some Breitlings I totally can't stand and then there are some that are sooooo Purrrrrrdyy!!!!
]. I also just want to get one for that type of crown. mmm
Yep they do. I believe the design is meant to have taken inspiration from a Colt gun barrel. I love mine.
Nah, this is a watch you have to get in yellow*. If you dont have the balls to do that, then you dont have the balls to wear this chunk of a watch!Love the white
* Not that I dislike it in both white and black variants.
I can do yellow. I have a orange superocean.
Ive got my eye on a yellow superocean pro. Just out of my price range at mo though.

Limited edition blackbird
Did you get it engraved yet col
Having it done shortly £30 no colour in it though.
Went down by 400 less than I paid in January sale but my AD refunded me.
!! Good AD!
As dor the engraving, I think your idea of deeper engraving with enamel infill would look better...
That's good going! Was that a additional discount for the sale or was it a general breitling price cut?
I never seem to be without one of these. Must have owned 10 now. Brilliant watch.
I bought the watch just before Christmas, I asked if it came into the January sale and was cheaper than what I paid would he honour the sale price and he has done.
I received 20% when I initially bought it.
This was at beaverbrooks in Meadowhall, Gavin is the manager and a top bloke.
In the past I have had 20% discount and 12 months interest free.
You can even have interest free on sale items unlike other high street companies.
When I send my watch for engraving he has offered me to loan me a tag watch as the BB will be away for 10 days.

Hi mate,
I'm having it engraved deep in block capitals, the guy doesn't do the enamel colouring so will
look for someone else to put the enamel in, maybe one of the guys on here may do it.
Cheers

Sounds like a good AD and you have to love the Blackbird!

pulled the trigger on this bad boy this afternoon, i need to source some new shoes for it though as the ocean racer rubber is at full extension on the deployanté and id like a bit of adjustment. i have shown an expression of interest to my dealer who has sourced what i need so i will take delivery of that beauty in a few days.

Posted this elsewhere but here is my little collection...
Seeing as Breitling is an aviation watch brand, here's a cheeky shot of me and my Emergency about to go for a jolly in a Tiger Moth:

Added the evo to my blackbird red strike, know to save for thr new 46 mm navitimer.

Here are my contributions
I like it.As promised, one Breitling Blackbird
ismaaeel
Loving the orange, it really looks a stand out piece
A grey, a black and a custard Seawolf? Now that's dedication!!
Not sure if I have posted this previously, but have this on loan from my dad for a few weeks, must say not usually a fan of 18ct or chrono's, but I think all of this works, level of detail is amazing and so is the black and blue dial when the sun hits it.
Crosswind SE I believe (although not 100% sure). Incredibly light, but slightly top heavy and a very nosey rotor when moving the wrist, is this normal?
PS that is Vito dads Chihuahua in there background
Does anyone know if there is such a Breitling, after wearing my dads Crosswind SE for a bit, I wanted to know if there was a time & date only model which is auto which is the sane size (think 42mm) which would be the same as the Avenger Seawolf but not as bulky? Any older models out there?
Very good resource here:

- if you want to have a systematic gander.
Cheers. Its so highly polished which doesn't come across in the photo. It looks great but your always worried about scratching it though.
Chrono SuperOcean - I am wearing one (from 2005) as I type!
(not my pic):
You probably already know about the older SuperOcean. In my eyes it's the closest to the SW. No stenciled numbers, but it has the traditional rider tab bezel and it's a very wearable 42mm.

Thanks I'll check that out, I've already looked at watchfinder.com, which bought the cockpit to my attention.
Thank you ideally not after a chronography though.Chrono SuperOcean - I am wearing one (from 2005) as I type!

Didn't know about that model, ticks all the boxes, but I must say the stencilled numbers are something that I do like, might just have to face up to the fact the Avenger Seawolf at 44mm may be the answer, always liked them in titanium and black or grey dial.You probably already know about the older SuperOcean.

There are a few dial variations in that model SO if you want to check them out. I believe that titanium Avengers, both Seawolf and Chrono, don't have stenciled numbers. Do not be put off by the diameter alone if you haven't tried it on, it is a well designed case and surprisingly comfortable. The lugs curve down considerably and it even looks smaller on the wrist than one might think.
Your watch is a Crosswind, the Crosswind SE is shown below and is a fair bit larger.Not sure if I have posted this previously, but have this on loan from my dad for a few weeks, must say not usually a fan of 18ct or chrono's, but I think all of this works, level of detail is amazing and so is the black and blue dial when the sun hits it.
