    That came later .. unlike yourself, at 16 I didn't know how good Breitlings were, but my boss knew. Hopefully I can add more to this story later.

    Became interested in the brand at 37, and bought my first then. (Blackbird) I'm 40 now and have also owned a Super Avenger, and Steelfish, but now have a Bentley 6.75 and Seawolf. So my answer is 5 lings between age 37-40... but I'm very content know so think I'm done for quite a while.

    Been wanting a Breitling since I wanted to become a pilot. Got my wings at 23, commanded a C-5 around the world at 26, starting instructing C-5s and flying King Air 350s (waaay smaller than what I'm used to) by 27, and got my Airwolf as a birthday present to myself at 28.

    I bought my first watch when I was 15. It was Casio G-shock. It was great digital watch.
    Now I'm only wearing automatic watches.

    I bought slivver71's SuperOcean Pro a couple of weeks ago... At age 30. Love this watch!

    Im new to Breitling (I'm an Omega guy) but I don't think this will be my last! Would love a vintage Navitimer
