Thanks! Yes - super tight lug-to-lug makes it very wearable and the thinness makes it super comfortable on the wrist.

One of the most put down of the big watch brands by the watch snobs if you know what I mean, "not scratch built" "not there own movements" etc etc but…….. Breitling blows em all outta the water in the sports watch category hands down that’s why I love em 👍🏻

I think the hangover from the 1980s/1990s is till tarnishing the brand.

The new in-house chronograph movements that they contributed to Kenissi are fantastic and they are using the Kenissi (Tudor) movements for the automatics.

So no more of that "not their own movements" anymore...

As another cruncher said and I quote " it don’t matter about the elves inside"
