Breitling SuperOcean Professional

The Breitling SuperOcean Professional is on its way. I should get it in 10 days.

It has service records from BUSA so its all good. I'll post pictures once I get it.

Thanks guys. I always wanted a Breitling.

I will post pictures when I get it. This model of SOP will be 42mm - it is the model prior to the change to the 44mm when they went to the "avenger" case look.

Not too big, not too small.

Yup, when Carlo, Roger and I were out for lunch, I offered Carlo the strap.

So the best way to "pay" me back was buy us lunch that day

Its going to a good home
