Hi All,
Just bought my first Breitling last week. Chrono Avenger M1 with Ti bracelet. I have admired Breitling for about 20 odd years and never thought i would own one but am now the very proud owner. My AD that i purchased it from told me about one of his customers and the forum he belongs too. Anyway a few days later I bumped into a really nice guy wearing a Breitling Jacket and found out his name is Lou and he has introduced me to the Forum. Thanks Lou you are a real Gent.

Welcome aboard - if you've met Lou then I suspect you're another member of the South West chapter of the Breitling Boys?
Don't believe the hype, he's horrible, it's just he's so scary we all pretend to like him!! ;-)
And be warned - they'll soon be asking for pictures . . .

Run, Arthur, run, while you still can. Once you're in...there is no leaving. :-d
Seriously, welcome to the forum, and congratulations on your CA MKI.
Pictures are compulsory though,- Lou must have mentioned that.;-)
Nick.

A warm welcome from me too. There is no known cure once you've caught the Breitling bug. Enjoy your CA.
