The Breitling Watch Source Forums

to go with my Blackbird Big Date....the Aerospace, 2009 42mm version which is actually my old watch which I have purchased back.

This model has evolved nicely over the years although I'm not quite sure of the latest pin stripe version. For me this could be perfect if they could make the alarm as loud as the B1/Airwolf but I still like it a lot the way it is.

Nice looking Aerospace...is it the resonance chamber on the back of the B1/Airwolf ALONE that increases the alarm volume? Just wondering.

Yes. At least that is what Breitling claims. Seems reasonable to me and I've listened to the Aerospace alarm on my wrist as well as the B1.

So they claim although the Omega X33 has an even louder alarm than the B1/Airwolf and doesn't have a resonance chamber on the back.

That's very nice Shalako,

It would be nice to see a few more pics of it .

I agree that the alarm is loud on the B1 and Airwolf (I've owned both) and IMO it is just right - after all, it is supposed to be able to wake you up .

Does the Omega X33 have any water resistance at all? I know that the 'Wolf is 5 Bar (restricted I am sure by the fact that it has the alarm resonance chamber) - limited by today's standards of water resistance but I have always felt that if you want an alarm, you have to make sacrifices elsewhere. I am open for criticism on this though.

Very nice! Just out of curiosity how much did you pay for it? I'm in the market for an Aerospace now so I'm trying to get as much info as possible. Thanks!

Nice! Congrats!
