I've asked my wife for a Breitling Windrider crono for our 5th anniversary.....I'm still allowed in the house, so it's looking good so far.

If I was out somewhere wearing my Polar as a watch, I'd be paranoid that someone like me would see it and think "He's kidding himself if he thinks he's a bike racer..."
