In a vague spirit of Le Mans…

I did wonder how long after the start of Le Mans it would be until we got a watch shot with the race in the background or similar.

Haha! Wasn’t intentional. Was just leaving the house to drive from home in Lancashire to London (and had swapped my GS seen above for this Farer) and realised I was going to miss Le Mans this weekend.

The silly strap has livened up a watch I previously wasn’t that into.

But perhaps a new watch photo cliché has been born..!

I do like a silly strap every now and again. I've got one sat on my desk might put it on one of my watches this week.

Maybe this will bring on some actual summer sun ??
I likey.

Although I couldn't find that particular model on the Breitling site. Is it a rarity?
It was discontinued in 2022, but was a series model.

It's a lovely watch and a bit of a bargain when you consider the in-house movement, level of finishing, complexity etc. I am a big fan of micro rotors too.

Realised today (thanks to Facebook) that I have owned my "daily" for 6 years.

I wasn't into watches at all but earlier in the year (2018) I had inherited my dads Rolex Datejust when he died. I wore the Datejust solid for nearly 3 months before realising the sentimental value was very high so I needed a daily watch. I actually ordered a Tudor GMT but realised quickly that it was going to be a long wait so went to Goldsmiths and purchased this off the shelf, I was 7 when Goldeneye came out so was drawn to a Blue Omega.




Its looking good for something that has been worn for maybe 5.5 of them 6 years, the .5 of a year will be covered by the Rolex and Tudor.
