I'm pretty much done with collecting now, but I've certainly got a good variety of affordable watches. As an occasional YouTuber, I'm a comedian not an influencer. Skmei is the new Casio!

Hurts me to say it because the Breitling Navitimer was my dad's grail and he only got one a year before he passed but I'm a GS fan boy. Love their elegance and simple designs.

I'm sorry for your loss. My dad died at the end of November 2022, but he wasn't really a "watch guy" despite how many I bought him. My only problem with GS is how thick they are generally as I've got way too many 13mm and deeper watches already, and it's nice to have something slimmer in Winter to go under my jackets.
But which models? I'm trying to get a "compare and contrast" thing going here because there are a lot of green variations. I'm hoping that Max is going to upload his green dial comparison video soon too.
I like the Bamboo looking GS:
It’s the breitling for me as I’m a dedicated fan 😉
However I have a green dialled watch and I think it’s smashing in fact one of the best……..

Agreed,, thickness of the GS range (maybe not new Evolution series) is an issue. I don't understand really as their older 1960s/ 1970s were thinner.
Water resistance can't add that much, and other brands can get under 12mm so why cant GS?
If I had to choose would go mad, I would be pacing up and down the AD muttering to myself and then collapse.
As a GS fan but dont own one (still saving and not sure still, having a niggle in my brain as it's a LOT of cash) but everytime I see a Breitling on here I fall in love with it.
Not mine
Yet 😂
But I’d pick this one
Strictly speaking dials, no one beats GS. Come at me.
