Need some opinion on a new breitling!

Hello Everybody!

Lately Breitling has been attractive to me because of one watch : the SUPER AVI B04 CHRONOGRAPH GMT 46 TRIBUTE TO VOUGHT F4U CORSAIR 

It got to my boutiqe and usually I didnt like breitling because they felt too small or like a toy, 

but I fell in love with this one because its so big with so many complications and all,

I came and tryed it and gotta say - I LOVE IT,

but I would like to ask whats your opinion on it on my arm, its huge - 46 MM, 

I am a big guy, 6"2 and weight around 230 pounds, so this watch compliment me, but compared to my old seamaster, its a monster, I reallyl ike your opinion and if that breitling fits me.

I think it looks big - that's what it's supposed to - but not crazy big on you. If you like how it wears, why not?

·

Looks pretty good.  I prefer to look at lug to lug.  The lug overhang on your wrist is ever so slight not egregious. Congrats.

·

The last 2 photos of you and the watch looks great. Doesn’t look large at all. If you love it, why not? 

·

Looks good to me....I wear a Super Avenger II which is larger than that watch, I think?

I am going to quote Marie Kondo from Netflix show on house cleaning in a different context “Does it spark joy?”. You don’t want to buy something and compare it with other thing you have. They both individually should make you happy. 
Both look good on you!
If the new Brietling resonates with you, go for it. Only person you have to convince is yourself.

Looks awesome, man!  You totally pull it off!

·

This may just be me but I don't think the black leather strap compliments the dial color. Perhaps ask for the brown leather option to see the difference?

·

From the mirror photos it looks like you're totally owning the look. Definitely a more sporty and modern look (in terms of size).

·

Yeah this looks awesome. If you love the watch and it feels good on you then

Who are we to tell you otherwise?! Even if you were a member of the Itty Bitty Wrist Committee I’d tell you to rock it.

I’ve picked up mine in late August and I’m still on honeymoon phase with it.

I have gotten the watch on SS bracket and Black calfskin strap with deployment buckle. Although, the watch lives most of the time on SS bracelet (which is so bad ass)

The watch feels balanced on my wrist (I have 6.75 inch wrist) due to its short lugs. I find it wears more like 43mm watch. I’m also 6 foot and 170lbs ,each time I rock it, this super Avi makes me feel a foot taller !
