The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I really like how the embossed gold Breitling wings-logo looks on the Super Avenger. Does anyone know why it's not on the Navitimer World? To my understanding, both watches have the same movement (besides the gmt on the Navi World), dial layout, and placement of the logo. I wish the Navi World had the same embossed-style gold logo instead of the flat printed one.

Thoughts?

Reasonable idea, and I can't see any technical reason why it could not be done. I think the corporate ID might get in the way though. Each line of Breitling watch is predicated on a positioning statement whose appearance is centre to the location of the watch in the range. In some cases its the B logo, whilst others the Flying Wings either flat or raised. In others its just BREITLING with heritage references in mind. There could be earlier models with more highly raised FW than on the current Navi. Look back to the 1990's.

Could be that the Navi would be too busy with a raised FW, and one that is better suited to the SA or Colt. There is a slightly raised FW on the Chronomat too (in gold). I have not seen any Flying Wings in gold though on the SA yet, only silver, so that would need to be addressed if the raised FW did migrate across to the Navi World.

All applied wings logos are gold and always have been.

Super avenger is something I have never noticed gold on the FW. Even the Breitling website show them in silver in that model. Is it white gold or are these not applied? Curious.

I think this may be something they do once a "B0-" movement is put into the Navi World. It would make the most sense to do it during the facelift.

Thank you, same goes for you.
