·Whether it’s quartz or not, knowing that ticking inside your fancy watch is a cheap mass produced calibre is a reall turnoff. I don’t care if it’s a TH or a Rolex.
If I want a cheap movement in a nice looking watch I’ll just buy a microbrand.
Main issue why I didn’t buy the 40mm AR. I hope the upcoming calibres will be an improvement.
The recent calibre 5 green Carrera LE is a real joke at 4k. Still you probably couldn’t get one if you wanted to…
Wrong thread?

·Talking of Rule 9, I tried a 43mm Navitimer in for the first time in the Breitling Boutique earlier. Fot and feel was superb. Turns out was looking at the 46mm and 43mm in the window of my AD previously, when I thought they were 43mm and 41mm respectively, hence why I thought they looked way too big.
Tried the light green on black, with black alligator. Also the silver on black, with bracelet. Both looked amazing, but the green was very special. Photo’s really don’t do that one justice.
I didn't think much of it, until I happened on this pic by @erwinchu.

·If you like green or teal, this Breitling x Cathay Pacific might interest you.

Will take a look into that, thank you.

·Something completely different at the opposite end of the market. I really like the Tissot PRX, with this latest colour being the best yet. Tempted to grab one of these once released:

·That is indeed very sexy! Have you tried the prx on in person? I was disappointed with how cheap it felt, if not knowing the price beforehand my guess woulda been €199
If an interesting LE pops up I might pick that up.

·Looks great in photos, but in person it was the epitome of underwhelming.

I have yet to try one on tbh, as been waiting for the right one to come along. I was less concerned when looking at the Quartz models online previously, but would certainly try on first if getting the Powermatic version.

·I had one of the original quartz and couldn’t bond with it. Seen the automatic recently and the case is slightly thicker. It actually improves this case design visually. On the rubber strap these look the part.
If an interesting LE pops up I might pick that up.
That was the model I was hankering after, with a purchase on bracelet and the additional leather strap you show too, but was waiting to see what else came around.
