Walked in with a GMT II 16710 and walked out with a Datora.
Well last week I got my GMT II back from the RSC. Something kept bugging me though, the bezel inset was off by half a click. So today I ran it up to the AD. While waiting for the watchmaker to decide if it needed to go back to the rsc I started looking around. At the breitling counter I saw the Datora for the first time in real life. Needless to say I have been a frequent flyer in the AD and bought a pile of rollies in the last few months and when the owner came up he said "there is a story to that watch" followed by something I hate to hear "I will take care of you on it". Long story short they sent the GMT II back to Rolex, I put my speedy (which I had in case they were sending my GMT to the rsc) back in my pocket and said done. I have been on the fence about the Daytona and it actually does not do it for me, but I love chronographs and this watch has everything. Month, Date, Day, 24hr hand and a chronograph to boot. Anyhow I have punched my Breitling ticket and couldn't be happier.
