Re: It's Friday -- How Could a Heuer Guy Not Like This One??

Very nice watch, Jeff, even if it's not a Heuer!

I don't know anything about Breitlings, but I seem to remember seeing a photo of one without the lume dots in the minute counter. Does this version really exist? To be honest, those lume dots/stripes is the only thing that "disturbs" me about this great looking watch.

Here is my companion for this sunny day. Have a great weekend, everyone!

Robert
