Just playing around with the camera and thought I would post some new pics.
I'm suprised this watch gets a lot of negative comments, I just adore it!

Very nice Damian

The 2 Breitlings are on my shortlist of 3 - the only change would be a bracelet on the SOH - but I'd have the Ocean Racer too as a change.

The SA is exactly the same as the one I'm planning.

Nice pics - the Rolex is OK too by the way.

Can't understand why you say the SOH gets negative comments - why?

Cheers :thumbsup:

Thanks BB,
Wrong choice of words maybe on my part, The SOH seemed to get very mixed reviews when launched, I would say more negative than positive. I personally think some people have been hard on it, although I think it's becoming more and more popular now :wink:

eeek! there is a finger print on the crystal of your SOH! That is cardinal sin number two, right behind "all rotaing bezels must always be prefectly lined up with the rider tabs at 12,3,6, and 9) :D

Seriously, looks good. Although I didnt like the SOH when they first came out, I am liking them more and more. Expecially on the Ocean Racer strap. The mesh one doesnt do anything for me.

Good pics! :thumbsup: (I'll overlook the fingerprint... just this once! :wink: )

Yeah the SOH is certainly becoming more popular now. That seems to happen with most models as people first start to get used to them, and then end up loving them. I've no doubt in a few months we'll probably start to come round to the 2008 models a bit more too.

I hated the SOH when it first came out, but I must admit that my wife's does suit her. I did take a look at the Chrono when it came out, but not sure I can see myself buying one.

That said - stunning photos Damian, and great collection you are building.

As for the 2008 models growing - they have a long way to go...
