| Post subject: | Which one to chose? |
After more research and another trip shopping I have a better idea of what I do and don't like. I've narrowed it down to 3. I think one is discontinued- is that correct? Any opinion as to which model is better? What about the movement? Just looking for some feedback.    In the end, which ever I choose, it won't be the one seen in the photo. I'm leaning towards the bronze dial and leather or croco band. Thanks for any info you have on these

Is someone using your ID?? Why am I looking at watches? I am confused now. Personally though - the top one looks good - didn't you want that style? |

The one I thought I wanted was a Starliner. After wearing the Navi for a bit, that Starliner was too small (FEAR, you were right )

The 2nd option is discontinued. As mfserge said...the 1st option looks best IMO. You already have a men's chrono with the Navi. Why not get something more elegant here? |

Think the first one looks elegant, don't really care for the last one. Still confused, I'm not used to seeing her wrists. |

No...has nothing to do with the color. The size of the first option is what makes it elegant for me. It's great to have a "big watch" option, but it's also nice to have one that is more reasonable in size that does not scream for attention. Just my $.02. |

I'd go for option 1 with that croc strap. Personally I soiled myself when I saw the strap in that last pic. I'd buy a watch just to put on that strap  The white dial on the dark brown croc = sex on legs. |

It doesn't show croco as an option on Breitling's site.

Wow this one is a hard one for me BUT none if the 3 on your wrist are doing it for me. The Navi in your other post looks super but these, not so IMO. Did any "speak" to you? |

LOL yeah, the Montbrillant Datora w/bronze face. It was actually screaming at me from the case. Sadly it is too big. Of the 3, I like the Chrono Cockpit the most. Not the color and definitely not the gold- but the size and shape was nice. Who knows? Maybe it 's because of the strap where as the other 2 had bracelets and I'm not really feeling those at all. Guess I need to go to more places and see if I can find the 2 Galactics with bands instead of bracelets. Eh. Thanks for your opinion. |

Definitely the first. I'm a 2-3 max, watch person, and it only makes sense for each to be very different.

Option A gets my vote. Maybe if the Chrono Cockpit wasn't that combination, it could be a lot harder of a decision. |
