The Breitling site has some releases up now. I'm on mobile so mobile links below but will be under news: http://mobile.breitling.com/en/news/det ... borne-2411 http://mobile.breitling.com/en/news/det ... timer-2413 So far so good - an in house Chronomat with a more traditional bezel and an in house Navi World in all but name. The 46mm Navi may be a bit big 44mm may have Ben better, but no real complaints so far! |

Was in the Sydney boutique last week looking at these on the assistants ipad. Really love the overall look of the Chronomat, particularly the new (old) bezel. Have to also say that the new inhouse 'World' by any other name looks great too. A couple of steps in the right direction

Chronomat looks great  .OK, Navi is a bit big, but bigger dial makes navigation computer bigger so maybe it's easier to use it... |

If you go to the website there are a couple other new releases. A new boutique edition transocean and a black steel montbrillant as well. |

The new Chronomat Airborne is a real winner. |

Did anyone note the price increases? About 5-6% in Australia. Ouch! |

I am liking the Airborne a lot, and I think that I prefer the cream dial version to the black, although both are clear winners to me. More important than any individual watch though is the fact that Breitling appear to be listening to their ADs and customers. |

I'm really liking the chronomats, it definitely blends the look the look of the classic chronomat and the the chronomat 01 very well. Navis are way too big for me, but they look great as well! |

Finally 46mm Navi with inhouse movement. On top of that, transparent caseback. It doesn't get better than that

Surprised they made the in house navi world in 48!!! That's an odd move no? Like the airborne with cream markers, glad the square is gone from the dial, still don't like the shape of the lugs on the 44m Breitling case. Overall it's a nice model with a refreshed bezel. However, I think they ruined the navi world!!!! |
