Has anyone got any pictures of the new SS Chronomat Evos with the roman numerals please?

I've only seen one in passing in my AD's window (black dial, silver numerals on a black leather strap), but I can't find any photographic examples of this or any other dial variants anywhere! There's nothing on the main Breitling website or the usually very good japanese site.

No, the Chronolog only has the two-tone versions with the rose gold bezels and markers, not the new all stainless steel versions.

Correct. Maybe they make them only in two-tone or gold, and that what you saw wasn't SS but the white gold. Just speculating.

No, they make them in SS now. They USED to make them only in two tone and solid gold... but they started making them in SS.. it was discussed in a couple of threads. I saw a black and a white one in all SS with roman numerals at La Swiss on boxing day... soooo tempting.

Ah ha, so there's a white dial one out too? Cool. Like I say I've only seen the black dial one so far. Just wouldn't mind seeing a few pics in case they do other colours - blue perhaps, but I'd love to see one in bronze. Bet they won't make one though. :(

I wish they made that Green dial for SS too. I would have got that instead of my red one. Does anyone know why they don't offer all of the dial colors for all cases (SS, 2tone, Gold)?

Full Ling - min. 46mm diameter
- min. 24mm lug width
- SS or gold bracelet

3/4 Ling - less than 46mm diameter
- less than 24mm lug width
- SS, Ti or gold bracelet

1/2 Ling - same as 3/4 Ling, but with leather or diver pro strap.

It's nothing official, guys here just love to classify Lings. :wink:
