Nah, I just drank a few Jack & Cokes while I was waiting. Just got to San José and am waiting on Rob to pick me up.

 

saw the JT for the first time in person tonight
looks a lot more compact than the panda with the black ceramic, and the forged carbon was INCREDIBLE to behold.
the red hands and accents were not overdone, and overall the white chronos did not disturb the dial as i thought they would in the pics.
overall, such a fiiiine piece and i would definitely not want to be in a position to choose between it and a bumblebee

the 44mm ceramic/carbon/ti black themes should arrive next month.
unfortunately the price quoted at the AD is going to be $40.8k
hope i can still make the 35% off happen sometime next year

 

The avenger watch is my favorite breitling. Such great proportions.

 

Gift from my dad:

 

Thanks, although only one of those watches is mine. I just wanted to share the rest with you fine men.

Don't know much about allergic reactions to rubber straps but I will say a black synthetic strap can be more comfortable and stand up to the elements.

 

today...

congrats! i would treasure that over ANYTHING since it's from your dad, enjoy it in the best of health.
looks really nice but can we have wrist shots please?

 

Awesome watch, and I think the photo don't show the true colors of it.

 

You've got a great collection! The milgauss has really grown on me since it first came out.
