Looks good!

Did you chaps notice it has a push button folding clasp? (would like to see good pics of this)

Yawn. Interesting they chose to reuse a Navitimer name for a Chronomat.

Didn't see the clasp, but no more buck rogers font on the bezel.

That is a stunningly gorgeous watch!!

(Don't care what they call it)

It's

Nick.

I'm still not a fan of the rubber inserts, however they work much better on this model. Overall I am pretty impressed!

Me too. I like that strap (and the watch incidentally). Perfect size for me too.

Me too... I am one of the very very very few supporters of the current Chronomat 44/41. More subtle details for me to admire and never get bored, although most do not like those. This new one seems like it's designed to please the consumers. However the effort taken to design the piece to narrate the origin and progress of the Chronomat is commendable IMHO.

I like it. Love the accents on the bezel for greater legibility.

And like that they went back to the rectangular filled hour markers with lume (like the Blackbird big date version) for better legibility over the angled polished markers. A little surprised to see the vintage/cream lume but it seems to work well for this anniversary piece. I'm trying to figure out if the sub-dials are off-white to complement the lume or just silver/white (?). Bezel looks good .

One definitely needs to see those tones in the flesh with Breitlings. The old Colts and SOs, for example, in white or 'silver', could look very different in the flesh from the studio and Chronolog shots.
