Breitling black dial men's wristwatch collection

The current Breitling collection of men's wristwatches with black dials. I am not a fan of black dials per se, some are nice in black, but some look even better in other colors. The black dials make it easier to compare all the watches, you can see the significant differences easier. Usually the differences are very small between some models, that's why you really need to look closely for details. The first step to buy such an exclusive high quality timepiece is to find a model that matches your taste and your expectations. So, I created this list for me, but it's also suitable for any other interested Breitling buyer.
I added the price in red. I found the source for the price here and here. The first one is from the current American price list, which I converted to euros. That's why it's not the most accurate - it's just meant for orientation, so you know about what sum of money is your favourite new Breitlig watch worth. Prices may vary from country to country and depending on the discount you get from your local AD. [Source of the photos is http://www.breitling.com. I'm sure they don't mind I'm borrowing from, since I promote their watches and hope they continue making one of the best timepieces in the world.]

A new beginning

Now I need to start over with my life! Some changes have occured in my life, mostly regarding my family. I'm now back home and I need to start moving. I know it's hard for me with this sickenning allergy and it will get tougher. But I have to be strong. I need to get back on track. It's a new beginning for me. I won't talk about what are my plans. I need to keep them inside me and just achieve my goals. Writing about it won't help. Sometimes words have a huge impact, but in this case words are nothing. Actions must follow. So let's get to work. Daydreaming is over!

Breitling Professional Airwolf (I.)

My dream watch is Breitling Professional Airwolf. I don't know if I will ever have one, since the retail price is about 2800-2900eur. It's a lot of money for a watch, so even if I save up enough, I wonder if I would really buy it.
Maybe when I have everything that's essential for a good life: a good job, a house, a car and if I am married the consent of my wife :-) Anyway, until then I'll just continue admiring this watch on photos. I must add that I also like many other Breitling models, so I may post about them next time. Here's some photos of my dream watch 'Airwolf'.

Tribute to Laura Ling and Euna Lee

Two American reporters, Laura Ling (on the left) and Euna Lee (on the right) were detained by North Korea. Allegedly they were illegally intruding in the great state of North Korea, crossing the border from China. I don't know what they were doing in those areas, but I hope they won't get harmed or abused in the great state of the beloved leader Kim Jong-gravely-ill. If you google Laura Ling, you'll see she's quite famous, while Euna is less so. Nevertheless, let's hope both of them will return safe and sound out of the great state of North Korea and won't be used for North Korean propaganda against the USA.

Brad Pitt lecturer in the University of Tokyo

I read that few days ago, Brad Pitt, American actor and freedom fighter, went to the University of Tokyo (東京大学), his second stop in Asia, to lecture about his personal involvements in the negotiations with the Pashtun people about the further advancment of their society, especially in the field of human raights issues. The Japanese students were very happy to hear the star talking about these pressing matters in such straight-forward rhetoric. Many felt that his lectures meant a sudden diversion from the cowboy style rhetoric of the previous Hollywood stars, who came as guest lecturers to the University of Tokyo. Xinhua reports, that this is merely the beginning of a new age Hollywood-lecturing-the-rest-of-the-world efforts iniciated by the Obama administration and that Pitt may soon drop by in China as well.

Her body is amazing and she's 30 years old!

She's gonna have a huge comeback with her next album...

Hyori was, is and always will be: Perfection.

Don't you agree with me?

Brad Pitt lecturer in the University of Seoul

Recently I read that Brad Pitt, the American actor and human rights activist, was invited to the University of Seoul (서울시립대학교) as a lecturer in human rights activism history. The class he lectured was only permitted to female students, because Pitt felt it was more comfortable for him, since it was his first endavour of this kind. He stated that the media could be present for the first 5 minutes, but for the rest of the 2 hours long lecture they were barred from the classrooms. Security escorted them out as Pitt continued reading from his notebook of personal research on human rights issues in Malawi. After the lectures, Pitt was the first one who left the classroom, promptly followed by a flock of domestic and foreign journalists. He seemed somewhat exhausted, sweaty, with a torn collar and a messed-up tie. His security prevented the journalists to ask any questions. That's why they diverted their attention to the female students. They were exulted, sweaty and some had their lipstick smudged. When one Korean reporter asked what happened, Park Sa-rang, a 21 years old student replied while applying her chapstick: "It was crazy. I'm exhausted. I have to go home." We couldn't get further information, we can only speculate what happened, said Wang Xiaoli, a reporter for Xinhua. He added that Pitt will continue his lectures all across Asia and it's most important universities. [Photoshopped by me :P]

Obama is a genius!

My whole last year 2008 was accompanied with excitement about the US presidential elections and Barack Obama. I can say, I heard about him already in 2006 when he went to Kenya and CNN reported it. One year later, in 2007, I watched on CNN how he announced his presidential campaign. And they began to report more and more about him and I already became a huge fan. At that time, everyone was excited about Hillary Clinton. Most of the meadia thought she already won, but not me. I knew Barack Obama was the best candidate with the best ideas that reflected my views and conceptions. I didn't doubt Obama, I doubted the American people due to the recent history of racism and the dominance of the right wing (that's was the perception). Anyway, luckily I was proven wrong and Obama was elected. It was a roller coaster: From Iowa to the Supertuesday to the debates with Hillary Clinton. Then came Bill Clinton's 'Fairytale', reverend Wright, 'Bittergate', Pennsyilvania and a lot of distress. Was I relieved when he won North Carolina and virtually wrapped up the nomination. I was so sick of those CNN pundits and all their bickering and ridiculing. I got goose bumps when I saw him in Denver in that big stadium. Joe Biden was a great choice, too. It seemed perfect. And then came McCain and the Republicans with their low shots and of course the joke of the year: Sarah Palin, her stupidity and ignorance. It was hillarious. I loved the presidential debates with McCain. Obama showed that he has an exceptional intellect. And then: election night! When he got Pennsylvania and Florida I knew he won. I waited until 4am to hear him speak. That speech was really history made infront of my eyes. I will always remember where I was when I heard it. I felt I was there in Chicago, I felt I was American and all the positive things that are associated with it. I felt that in 1 single day the world became a better place.
And now here we are. It's March 2009 and I tune in CNN and see president Barack Obama has a town hall meeting, answering questions and trying to increase support for his bold policies. After the election and until the inauguration I was in Malaysia and couldn't follow his interviews and all that was happening in that period. So tonight I heard him speak after a long time and I thought: Wow, he is a genius! In this moment I think there's not a single democratic politician in the world who is as intelligent, witted and articulate as Barack Obama. He could sell you any idea by the way he delivers it to you. It's still incredible, it won't decline and I think even after he will face tough backfire, make mistakes, he will give a speech and you will believe him or forgive him. Barack Obama is a genius. He will transform the presidency like Lincoln or FDR did. He won't be topped in my life time, he set the bar too high for any successor, it's a once-in-a-century thing. That's why, even in these hard times, recesion, terrorism, financial crisis... I know we (the whole world) have someone who's honestly working the hardest he can to make a difference. It's a great time to be alive.
