What do you guys think of this one? 42mm x 14 is like my pilot chrono. I have been wanting a proper bracelet watch because I see how people like them so much, I'd give it a try. Plus, I can always put a strap on, right? Also, should I care that this has a non-in house movement and the automatic has in house? This place is a bad influence.

Don't blame you one bit.
I am not a bracelet fan so that detracts right away.

My problem with that new spitfire is that a 60 minute chronograph wheel is fairly useless unless you have a magnifying glass with you at all times.
As far as the speed master, I agree that I am not a huge bracelet guy, but I haven't given it much of a chance. The only bracelet watch I have was a gift from my dad and it is more dressy so I don't wear it for everything like I would a sporty bracelet watch. I figure if I get one cheap I can flip it if I don't like. Hmmm. Now that I have the JLC though, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the size. I may just keep buying dress watches forever.
