Many thanks for your & every members input in reference to my Post.

I have arrived at the most logical decision to go with the majority and purchase both with the TT being the first to add to my collection followed by the Hulk sometime later.

Oh la la !!! stunning acquisition! Congrats and Merry Christmas!

Lucky you to find one!! I've been looking for one but all stocks in Asia are empty.
I've been to almost all ADs in the city center of HK and Shanghai and couldn't find any. Whereas a few month earlier I could find plenty.

I'll have to wait... Hopefully they won't be unreasonable with price increase next year. Otherwise I'll pick one from a grey dealer or will go for another brand (I love the new Breitling Chronoliner's blue dial too)

Wear your bluesy in good health! and Merry Christmas!

Congrats! One of me all time favorites. More versatile and practical than most give it credit for.

Enjoy!

What an absolute beauty! You get the stunning looks of yellow gold, while still having the durability of stainless steel. And of course, you get what I consider to be the best blue dial in the entire watch industry. Well done sir
