Superocean Heritage II Chrono
A semi incoming!

My husband is turning into a WIS

He was a lot harder to talk into trying on watches only months ago. Now that his Tudor GMT is gone for date issue Service, he said he missed it and his Tags don't feel the same.

As his 50th birthday is tomorrow, he got talked into looking for watches the other day, and he found a watch that he really liked.

Neither of us are TT, gold, or rose gold people, but this is a stunning watch.

After a bit of back and forth, we just picked it up at our local Rolex and Breitling AD, Razny.

I might start shopping for a leather band, so I can wear it at times :)

The watch is truly stunning!

Here is a pic, and one with my SD for comparison.

Breitling straps are are pretty nice but kind of costly. Are you going to add the mesh bracelet? I've only tried it on but it's really comfortable.

I didn't like the mesh bracelet, neither did my husband and we're both bracelet fans. Was thinking of black leather or alligator strap for me.

The 44mm looks to fit great! Great choice to compliment the Tudor GMT.

The Breitling Camel coloured croc strap would look good on that watch as well

You may want to spec a customer strap length. The large 46mm case means the lug distance from the 12 to 6 side uses less strap to go around the wrist.

That's a good point too. Didn't even think of it.
