I for one am VERY excited. For some time I have wanted to add a Navtimer to my collection. Nothing represents Breitling to me more than the Navtimer and the Chronomat. Till now however I have always found a deal-breaker in the Navtimer line.

I was pleased to see a new email in my inbox this morning. New this year, is a Montbrilliant 01.

So whats the big deal, well not is it now in-house, but it's 40mm. THANK GOD!

Finally something I can wear every day, and on a brown croco that will look good.

I think I found a winner for the first piece I must have this year. I cannot find any fault with it.

Basically - solid caseback version of the LE.

Roff, was last year's LE also 40mm? I was somehow under the impression it was 46mm.

I really like the look of the watch. I tried on the LE with the display back at the breitling boutique last week and I really wanted to want it because I love the face, but it just felt a little on the small size. Maybe because I had just tried on a much larger watch right before that....might need to give it another try with only trying that one on.

Nope, 40mm - this is essentially the same watch.

ARG thank you for the correction Roff. I don't know how I got that confused.

Edit: I just found a pic of the LE from last year, the date wheel is Maroon. I hate that. I'm so anal about date wheels it's ridiculous.

I think the standard model was like $8560 on the navi bracelet while the LE was $8960 on the bracelet.

Was talking to the AD today and looking through his book. The new Daytora is pretty amazing. And there is now a proper bracelet option for the TO with a closed end link - the new Pro III!!! Plus an LE black steel Chronospace with a DLC mesh bracelet. Not sure if I have seen that one here yet.

That's great news about the bracelet option for the transocean. There are pics if the chronospace with the DLC bracelet on TimeZone. That one is also up in Breitling's website. I think LE chronospace is only available on the black mesh.
