Hi everyone, new to this site/board. I have been wanting a Breitling Chronomat with a blue face for a long time. First question, is the evolution model the smaller face? I ask as I think I have seen and read there is a chronomat and chronomat evolution.

second questions, and not to insult all of you Breitling owners but as everyone knows to get a new one, cost a lot of $$. Even some of the used ones. That being said, I was curious if anyone knows a good website/seller that has good quality replicas as I have thought about that if I can't find a used one within reason.

Thanks for any help!

Welcome aboard.
They are the same watch.
We only talk about real Breitlings here.

Sorry then to bring up replicas. So let me ask you, is there 2 different size faces for the Chronomat? For some reason I thought I have seen 2 but could have been wrong?

o no you ditnt

No love for fakes hear I'm afraid.

As far as the diff. in chronomat evolution and chronomat, it's just a name change. Same watch, they just dropped the "evolution".

Hope you decide to get a genuine Breitling. Youi'll never regret it :lingsrock:

There is, from 1984 (since modern Chronomat was introduced) - 2004.
From the introduction of Chronomat Evolution in 2004, it just changed the name in Chronomat again 2007/2008.
New Chronomat B01 was introduced earlier this year, but that's completely different watch.

THanks for the info. I really hope to find a nice used one in good shape as that can cut the costs down as I know genuine is a far better move.

Thanks!
