Was looking into Breitling, but my next watch will be something dressy, and that is definitely not Breitling. Now looking into a SS Ballon Bleu de Cartier or a Frederique Constant Moonphase.
I have that watch too and have to admit it is not the best at keeping time, even when on a watch winder. By far the worst movement of all of my Tags.

I since bought 2 different Grand Carreras, both are chronometer certified and in a different league of timekeeping to the Link; the Calibre 17 RS (Black alligator strap/silver dial) and the Calibre 36 RS Caliper (Stainless steel strap/black dial).
