Hey guys, You guys started this now tell me what model it is as I think I like it. It is new and the seller is calling it a Superocean but unlike JohnR's is has Colt on the Dial. I know it is an Auto,has a 500m depth rating,is a GMT and supposedly has a German Military dial. Any info or thoughts would be appreaciated. Cheers Aaron

Aaron, it definately isnt a superocean, and the advertiser shouldnt be advertising it as such. It is a Colt GMT and have seen it in the pictures before. the superocean range has a waterresistance of 1500m, unlike the colts 500m WR.. and i am not sure that they do a superocean GMT version, certainly it isnt on breitlings website or most common grey dealers websites. this watch looks like the regular dial on offer from the breitling website.. so not sure what they mean by 'german military dial' www.breitling.com/en/models/aeromarine/colt_gmt/sounds all very fishy.. i like the watch, but unless this is from an AD or you trust this guy i would stay clear.. mamas

Hey Mamas, Thanks for the info.Your right it is a Colt GMT.The guy is not an authorised dealer but does sell for an authorised dealer online.I do trust him and I think he just has missinformation. I can't see anything odd compared to the web site photos.The numbers look a different shade in the photo I posted but other photos I have show them in the normal colour. BTW,The link to the site is great.What a site,it is the first time I have been there and it is pretty impressive. Cheers Aaron. I must set up a post with watch brand web site links.(Just for us lazy folk)

I had thought about the Colt GMT and really liked it but had always wanted a SO. I am very happy with the SO too. The SO is the only watch I own that appears that the crystal is so clear that it looks like it isn't even there.

It's in the 2005 Chronolog. I looked at one yesterday and other than the somewhat small size I thought it was pretty sweet looking!
