Staggered Pick Up
As much as I love Rolex watches, I’ve been looking out a lot more as of late.
Picked up these two at different times. Almost sold the Blackbird, but I am pretty stoked that I kept it. The Blackbird specifically has great lume, a bezel for timing and I love blacked out look. The Transocean has this amazingly clean dial and I love the day/date combination. I’ve alweays been a sucker for it. Both are basically the same size. Slim cases too, so they wear really well. They are big at 43 mm, but they don’t wear big at all, based on the slim profile. They wear much smaller than one might imagine. Apparently Breitling has gotten very flexible with straps so it’ll be fun to see what options I might come up with. They are both very reasonably priced. The new warranty card that cane along with the Transocean is really neat. So far, I’m really impressed and glad to be back with Breitling.

Very sporty watches that can be worn as a nice daily.

Is that Blackbird an Avenger GMT, forgive my ignorance. Looks like my brushed SS Avenger I bought last summer, mine with the blue dial and OEP blue rubber strap, great clasp.
Love the rugged look, thought 40mm would be my max but, you’re right, it wears smaller due to the low profile. Enjoy

Great pickups. Love the avenger line, and blackbirds are always special. Transocean seems like a great way to complement that rugged modern sport look with elegance
