I've been looking for a multi-function quartz Breitling for a little while now, and initially thought about getting an older Chronospace. I've since discounted that, and have recently been thinking about a B-1. However after seeing the pics of the special edition Reno Airwolf on here (thanks AcroPilot!), I went and tried on an Airwolf at my AD this afternoon. And it looked superb!!

Now I've read that some people seem to prefer the B-1 though, so is that down to looks alone, or does the Airwolf lack something in terms of functionality that the B-1 had? :?:

As far as I can tell they seem identical - same movement and pinion-driven slide-rule set up, etc - so are there any differences that makes one better than the other, or is it purely down to aesthetics? :?

Cheers Acropilot. I initially though the sunray dial effect on the Airwolf would put me off (hence why your Reno one with the flat dial stood out), but actually once I saw it in the flesh I really liked it. I think an Airwolf may be coming my way very shortly! :)
