2010 SuperOcean case and bezel shape are nice, but I hope till the time they'll update the CSO day-date 42 mm Breitling discovers the ceramic lunette and places a lume dot at 0/60. (Rubber is not for eternity.) The Chrono Cockpit is completely ruined with the new lunette IMHO: not only less funtional but the only advantage of the Chronomat B01 bezel (is that pulli-killing is over) is not valid to this one: look at the rider tabs - they stretch over the fixed part of the bezel and that's it. So I'm very, very happy to own a Chrono Cockpit - which seems to be the last normal- (=not over-) sized Breitling Chrono w/the 7750 caliber and functional, "modern-Breitling"-typical bezel. Fits excellent my 6.75" wrist. Weekday feature is missed though. I'd be most glad with a Chronomat B01 with an added fly-back function and a simple full calender module: see the Blancpain FF Chrono Calender Flyback that was also just introduced in Basel. The Breitling version would make my one-and only watch - possibly in a 40-41 mm case. Hope next year will bring real good news in this direction... Best, Robert |
