Well if it is one that I own out of these

It would have to be the Colt Chrono. Looks good on braclet and leather.

A great size and height, easy to pick up and go being a quartz, equally at home as a dress watch or a casual watch. And still manages 200m WR.

Old thread revived....

Ever since I got this watch my answer has never changed, despite all the bad comments about it. It's not just my choice of one single Breitling, but one single watch regardless of brand. It might not have that long history like the Navi, but to me it is the epitome of Breitling essence and spirit. It is a pilot watch, it is a dive watch, it is a land watch. Any strap, any outfit, any occasion. It looks classic and elegant in the dark and it looks modern and forceful in the sun.

Basically two different kinds of BB out there - which do you mean?

I had the blue dial with silver counters. I find it one of the best watch for the purpose out there. Had to sell only because I could not get used to the contrasting subdials, making time reading hard at twilight. Sold it when the Steelfish Chrono appeared and went for the BEB dial. Stunning but I'll always have a nostalgy towards my first Breitling, the CSO I.

After all this fantasizing, I feel a little guilty not giving my CSO its due. It doesn't have quite the drool factor of some of the other models we've been discussing here, but as a purely functional timepiece, it's got it where it counts. It's powered by the time-tested B13 - nothing exciting, but a workhorse of a movement. The CSO has zero fat - every feature is something I can and do use: a chronograph, a day/date, and a very readable diver's bezel. I even found myself using the decimal converter on the rehaut today. It's also great looking without being overly flashy, with a classic look that is unmistakably Breitling. I wouldn't mind if it had better lume, a la the Blackbird, and a slightly more legible hour totalizer; also, because of the day/date feature, it's missing a baton, so the symmetry of the dial is slightly off. Those slight shortcomings notwithstanding, I can't think of a better watch for the money. It may not be the only Breitling I'll ever want, but it's the only watch I'd ever need.

Motors T Speed


I think the BfB Motors T Speed with black velvet dial is the best watch out there as far as class, uniqueness and versatility.

I liked my Navi, but I love my Crosswind Special. It's been the perfect watch for me, and I really appreciate the big date.
