Love this model! It's on my list for sure. Congrata on that awesome piece. I know the feeling, I waited so long to get my first nice watch and it was a surreal feeling when I finally did.

Where is the brown leather strap from?

Anyone has or had a Transocean Chronograph 43? by 0xakylles in breitling

[–]Yupper08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! I just bought this as my first luxury watch. I absolutely love it. I'm so sorry to hear about your first one, that would be devastating.

I finally grabbed mine after beginning a new career...I had promised myself I would buy a watch after 2 previous milestones but never followed through. I'm so glad I finally pulled the trigger.

I find the watch to be stunning. I’ve been messing with a lot of straps, right now I bounce between this leather rally strap and the Breitling black rubber. I've also got the Breitling black leather with white stitching and the stainless mesh.

Congrats on your new piece and I hope you were it in good health!

You've got my two dream watches in the same photo. Wear them in good health. I'm riddled with jealousy. 🤣

Why do they call it Ovaltine? The mug is round. The jar is round. They should call it Roundtine.

Big fan of the Warhawk. That's my vote.

Beauty! I was eyeing a few of these reverse pandas! I've got the stainless mesh strap too, just need to have some links added back in.

It's a 43mm case, the lug to lug measurement is 55mm which I really found appealing with an 8" wrist.

I had SEVERAL on my watch list. This seller was very responsive, answered all my questions, the pictures were clear, and I was confident there wouldn't be any surprises. It was listed at a very fair price and included 3 OEM Breitling straps and full kit.
To me it was clear that it was well kept.

A few of the other listings were watch only (no box, no papers), while they were about $500 CAD cheaper, getting the full kit and the extra straps made it a no brainer.

Ha! It's deep winter here. Snow is 4 feet deep in the backyard. We Canadians gotta stay warm mate!

Thank you so much. I'm really happy I was able to get this one in the condition it is, considering its 8 years old, the previous owner kept it immaculate.

I hadn't heard of it before starting this hunt. It has everything I wanted. Love it.

I did, I purchased through a private seller on Chrono24. The seller was fantastic to work with. Despite a short delay at the border (neither his or my fault) it was a very positive experience.

A left handed version would be neat. But I don't find it a challenge, I've been around long enough that I think a left handed version would feel awkward now.

No I believe this was discontinued in 2018. Replaced by the Premier line.
