The brand with the winged B is introducing the Transocean Chronograph Limited special series, fitted with the manufacture’s in-house Caliber 01 automatic chronograph movement.

Yes, seems Breitling is going less bling and more classic these days. This one and their SuperOcean reissue are really nice IMHO.

I want wunna doze!!! That is gorgeous! I am afraid to link to the site to see the price!

A beautiful watch. A similar alternative with likely less sticker shock would be the Mido Commander:

Being as the Trans-Atlantic starts at around $7600....the Mido looks phenominal! But I really want that Breitling...I can't help it!!!

I'm a Mido fan, own 3, but I'm with Duff on this one - I really like the Breitling a lot more. Not +$6000 more but it is nicer.

The only thing I don't like about this watch...other than the price...is the LE number being on the side of the case. Not sure why they chose to put it there but it looks a little gaudy in my opinion.

Then you wont like my Tutima LE anymore... that's where it is, too.

[bodypeersur]

Well send it to me Tim and I'll see if I can live with it being there!
