I still can't get over what they have done to the aerospace, lol. The 125th anniversary navi looks OK, but I'm not sure about the subdials to be honest  Looks far better than on a strap than on that horrid bangle-esque bracelet though.

The new Aerospace dial on red gold case is the watch to own if you can. Don't judge these until you see them in person. |

The 125th Navitimer looks like what Breitling would make, although I still like the standard Navitimer. The SA looks good, and the Aerospace is not my cup of tea. Great pics by the way

It never ceases to amaze what grabs one person's eye over another. I guess this is why Breitling makes more than one model, because I absolutely love that 125th on the leather (it did nothing for me on the "Steel Racer" bracelet), and I really like the copper dial on the Aerospace, though I think I'd prefer that one on a bracelet. Thanks for posting these, Harry. |

I don't like the new SA. I am not a fan of the stenciled numbers, I like the solid ones more. I also don't like how the 8 and 10 are on the dial. Too much of the numbers have been removed to my liking. I prefer the older style more. |

I love the copper Aerospace. Which is strange because I usually don't like copper dials. So I guess not all of us hate it... |

Nope, still not sold on any of them. If anything I think the Aerospace looks the best, but then I also think it loses it's tool look......... which is a real shame IMO. Good spot by Spartan that there's no lume at all on the 125th. There's nothing wrong with it per se, and at least it is a classically styled Breitling, but it still just looks a bit ordinary (and dare I say "dull") for a celebratory piece. BUT it looks a lot better on the croco than on that hideous "airtex" bangle! SA? Well, stencil overload continues........ |

Already bored of stencils - Solid ones were nice but batons all the way for me I'm afraid.....but each to their own........I personally think Louis Vuitton and Breitling should collaborate in the styling - The "Arsemarine Range" perhaps ?....sorry I think that comment is tantamount to "Beast Feeding"
