Sorry if this has already been discussed .... I did a quick search and didn't see it.

I was just playing around on the Breitling website taking a look at the new 2010 models. While looking at the Chrono Galactic and its specifications, it immediately occurred to me that, with the dial with romans, the Chrono Galactic is just a Chrono Cockpit with the B01 bezel. I can't see anything different at all. Am I missing something or did Breitling really just recycle a watch by putting a new bezel on it and calling it something new?!

That's exactly what they did. Most of the galactic range is rebranded Windriders with the new bezel.

Totally disagree. I LOVE the B01 bezel.

And you have to accept that there are quite some Breitling (silent) lovers out there that also do.

I'm fine with other people liking the B01 bezel. However, if they get rid of the rider tabs on all of their wathches, I won't be buying anything from the Aeromarine line ever again.

I am not complaining, 8) I just try to pass a message from the silent minority. :wink:

If you HATE it, too bad for you :poke: . Even D8 will, eventually, succumb to the B01's majesty. Just give him some time and keep his mate in Europe a while longer. :)
