I dunno guys. So many of the "name brand" watches seem to be over-rated. There's nothing wrong with paying for a good qualty timepiece, but I wonder if the watched always live up to the name?

Rolex and Tag Heuer are great quality, but have become de rigeur in the jet-set and are therefore outrageously priced.

Breitling on the other hand has plenty of high-quality watches, been around forever, and can be had at much less than Rolex prices. This is what I ended up with. I'm a REAL fan of the sapphire crystal. 5 years and not a SINGLE scratch. Stainless steel construction, love it!

(On a side note, I tried on a titanium one, cool factor 100, but felt so light it could have come from a gumball machine)
