I am a guy, but I have several Breitling watches. I too have done all of the common luxury watches, a few exotics.. but I think Breitling produces a great watch.
I purchased one for my Mother last Christmas. She wears it when she gardens, that thing has taken a beating and it still looks brand new! I have my watches serviced every 2 years and I have been impressed with their turn around time. They are also very accommodating when it comes to replacement parts, watch bracelets, etc.
I am also very impressed with the quality of materials that they use for standard, out of the case pieces. The diamonds that they use are some of the finest available.
I would highly recommend Breitling for all of the above reasons.
