I sent an email to BUK on Friday, asked if they'd be so kind and send me a copy, posty delivered it on Saturday morning, shortly after Postman Pat knocked on the door at 07:30 with my nice new Diver Pro I rubber strap from Andrew Michaels!

...........................and slightly off topic but I also ordered a new Seiko Orange Monster from Creationwatches late on Thursday night and that arrived this morning, not bad at all seeing as it came from Singapore!

So, I got my first Chronolog 2012 on Tuesday, an now already a couple are in the stores, but pricelists will follow in about 2 weeks.

To my opinion, its a little bit chaotic. Beginning with the small Navitimer section, having the datasheets all together (except the professionals) at the end, and the professionals with their datasheet afterwards? The Montbrillant is way in the back, far from the Navitimer, including the limited edition? What for? They have been delivered at the same time as the transoceans, where no LE is included. Maybe its not selling as good as the others?
Also I don't like the white paper for the flying part, that just does not match together.

Can't really disagree with you BG, it is a bit chaotic.

The Chronomats, for example, are presented all mixed up between the various editions of steel, TT or gold etc. In previous Chronologs you had the steel editions first, followed by the TT and by the gold ones.

Then, the Colt is at the end, after the Galactic, instead of being after at it's more "natural" place after the Avenger/Seawolf.

But maybe they're presented in order of importance to Breitling.

As for the flying part, I find it quite neat to step out of the watch part. I think it was intended that way.
