    Your almost perfect watch?

    Sooo I stare and stare at this watch. It is perfect in every respect in my eye...except one...at 38mm it is too small for my fat wrist.

    Name: pre_basel_2013_breitling_transocean_chronograph_38-s.jpg Views: 253 Size: 78.3 KB

    The larger versions loose the proportions or add the extra dial... I saw this across a shop in NYC and fell in love till I got close and saw how small it is....

    Even with that i still look at it all the time. I have a problem....

    How about you? Whats your almost perfect watch...how much does it still tempt you?

    I'm generally not the biggest ALS fan, but that is pretty sweet and the watch face actually takes up the whole dial which seems rare on an ALS.
    Cheers,

    Michael

    Tell everyone you saw it on IWL!

    Thank you sir, comments appreciated! Yes, I've owned a few Lange watches but this one satisfies me the most. I doubt I will ever let it go seeing as how I waited so long for one . . .
