Big Debate

[Palakiko]

OK Guys. Wondering what you think about this decision I am about to take...

I am about to purchase a Breitling at a really low price. Its a Breitling superocean heritage 38mm on a rubber strap. (Got a question about that strap too) I will be purchasing this watch as a daily wearer until the day I get my Rolex - the wife already promised she'll get me a rolex in about 3 years as a masters degree grad gift.

I feel a little bit like I am purchasing this Breitling because I am filling the void until I get the rolex. And I already viewed the previous posts/thread about someone buying the rolex so please dont send me to that thread.

But now that I know that I can get a great watch (breitling) at a great price and I know my wife is going to get me a rolex in a couple years. Do you think buying the breitling is a good idea?

Background - I cant wear my usual daily wearer tag f1 red dial because I am in the military and a red dial is a big NO NO.

Also if I am buying the rubber strap and it is sized for someone a lot smaller will I need to purchase a new strap?

Thanks guys,
Francisco
