I love my Breitling, although my everyday/deployment watch is a Suunto Core - all black.

My "whiz-wheel" had been frozen in place for a couple of years now. At my age I couldn't read the numbers anyway if I had to use it

PS. Real men wear the "Citizen Skyhawk". Gotta love the time zone setting function

Not the point......he has never graduated from USAF pilot training. Therefore, no more qualified to wear them than any other non-USAF trained guy. For example, I would never presume to wear a pair of Navy wings, no matter how many ratings I have.

Honestly not trying to start a p***ing contest on who is better trained.
