Good afternoon, all. I guess I will step up to the mic.
A couple weeks ago, Justin helped me out with a referral and I picked up a Colt Auto Chronograph. It is my first (and likely only) luxury watch. I am (was) an Army Helicopter pilot and bought myself a Seiko Flightmaster ($500 in 1990) when I graduated flight school. Thats about the extent of my watch collection, other than a couple worn out Luminox dive watches.
I have been a pilot since about 1988 and coveted Breitling all these years, thanks to the AOPA model I was never able to afford. I was doing a static display at an airshow probably 20 years ago (or more) and got to hang out in the hotel bar that evening with the Breitling Demonstration Team so I have never forgotten how much I've wanted one. I just finally couldnt take it anymore and spent my first retirement check (which wont come for another 2 years or so).
So, I want to first off, thank Justin for his help. And second, if I have just a couple routine questions about ownership, do those really go in the discussion forum?
But the main purpose of this post is to thank Justin. My watch is a daily wearer and I just cant describe how happy I am to have it!

Congrats! I'm glad the guys at Govberg were able to help out.

I'd post any questions in the Breitling discussion board.
