Well I wanted the new Rolex GMTII-c but there were 2 rolex ADs in my city and the one that can give me a discount was sold out..the other wouldn't budge on the price...so I decided to wait it out and pick up my other favorite watch that was on my next list..and I finalized the deal between the Breitling SuperOcean Heritage 46 and 38...went for the 38mm instead and I love it...I can barely feel it on my wrist. The 46mm was just way too big for my 6.25" wrist and it would just look silly. I think this is the last watch purchased for 2007 until 2008, gf thinks I'm crazy buying so many watches..

That's a damned sexy watch; a bit heavy on the Rolex appearance, but world class nonetheless! I really like the bracelet on that one - classic. Perfect size for your wrist too. I see a lot of posts regarding 'bigger is better', I have to disagree with them. What looks right on the wrist is the best choice. Well done, Sir!

Thanks for the great pics! My favorite part about this site is seeing the pics of a new acquisition. I think you did the right thing size wise. Looks great!

thx, yup i agree with u on the big is better, a 46+mm watch on a small wrist like mine looks like a clown with a big clock on the wrist...it's what suits your wrist best

I will have to agree that while 38mm would be way too small for me, it actually looks really good on your wrist, bling88. :thumbsup:

Hi,

I work for a company that sells Breitling watches, and just yesterday I had picked up the very same watch like you have.... It is really nice when it sits on the wrist, and I am sure you will use it in the best of spirit!

Congrats!!
