Chopard 1000 Miglia XL owner reporting. Decent watch except the clasp has pissed on me 2 times already. 1 replacement clasp and 1 bracelet already replaced by the local AD. I think it's a problem with all metal bracelets and clasps for their larger faced models.

Yeah the LUC's are nice, but can' seem to rationalize the price. Priced too steep for that series. Would actually prefer its Monaco series.


Set my sights on Breitling Bentley GT series, but yet to find out on the retail prices from the local AD. Like it better than the Aeromarines simply because they aren't so thick!

patryn33, thanks for the info and explanation.


Come to think of it, you're planting seeds of doubt in my mind now! haha. I know the Breitling 13b/ Valjoux 7750 mod engine is definitely not considered high end in any way. But the bloody Bentley GT series are definitely OH SO YUMMY looking!


Btw, what do you think of the Hublot watches? In particular the Big Bang series and the HUB 44 movement? I know they're in another price category all together, but would sure like your opinion since u seem to be an expert in watch/movement technicalities.
