I'd have to say the Bentley 6.75. Incredible watch! Perhaps it will be overthrown in a few weeks as I'm debating a new ling.

For me it would have to be the Navitimer World. Closely followed by the Evo and Avenger.

For me this is one of the most beautiful Breitling dials ever made.

Has to be the Blackbird. More popular in the brushed finish and black face but I kind of like this one.
Thanks again Roman.
Frank.

There are lots of options to choose from, and like others, my opinion can change depending on the way the wind blows. That said, I keep coming back to the Chronomat a13352, black or blue dial. The Chronomat was how I came to Breitling, and for my tastes, the a13352 was as good as the modern Chronomat ever got, ETA movement notwithstanding. It also represents Breitling in their heyday, when form was in support of function, before they got all goonie for size, and before they started rubberizing, colorizing, and repurposing everything.

Great video of the a13352

The best Breitling is the one that will make you feel "ur the man" and feels like you have the most expensive watch in the world. Anyway I'm new in Breitling and all started when I saw the Navitimer and dreamt about it but its too big for my small wrist. My first ling is a chronomat evo which I purchased March of last year but I onlywear it for special occasions coz its too shiny for me and recently My wife gave me the latest edition of Superocean with yellow accent and so far became my day to day watch with I dont want to take it off kinda feeling. I still like to own a navitimer oneday but as of now I'm very happy with superocean chronograph.

Since we're comparing photos, here's one to support my case. This pic really does it for me for some reason.

You could consider the Montbrillant as its just 38mm - Check out the buy sell trade section on the forum

I'm curious. Is it considered OK to try to sell your stuff in a thread like this?
