Difficult watches to compare - and you know what we are going to say about getting the one that calls to you, but for me - Chronomat every time - it's mechanical!

:yeahthat It's not even like comparing apples with bananas - it's more like comparing apples with potatos. :wink:

I've gotta go with the Chronomat from the same reason as Roff.

chronomat for me. The first i got was the SA, then the EVO. I was looking at M1's when i bought the B2. Went with the B2 because i wanted the mech, and when i saw them together, the B2 won. Also, the M1 is has similar look/style to SA, and i wanted to have diversified portfolio to stare at in the winder box. The M1 is cool for a lot of reasons, but for me, i won't pick that up till i need a chronograph while submerged, or until someone offers me one at a price i can barely afford. Then the disease will kick in.

Gotta go with the evo here too. The only thing thats been putting me off of it for a while has been the bracelet...it just seems too dressy for me, and im not a dressy guy. The pro II is just too damn awesome. Only the speed bracelet ranks higher to me.

No, most Breitling end links are only made for a specific model or variation of the same model.

So a Chrono Avenger end link will fit an M1.

A Chronomat end link will not fit a B1/2 or Airwolf - I would imagine

hell, my Navitimer Fighters bracelet will not fit my 50th Anniversary or standard Navitimer - as all 3 cases are different. You get my drift..

No, it won't.
ProI CA is 880E and M1 is 888E.
ProII CA is 132E and M1 is 133E.

I like both also had them both :)
The M1 is Cool because its titanium :) and the Chronomat is a blingbling watch
Dont like a chronomat with gold pushers echt its not my thing (sorry guys)

If you do a search you can see the DoandDont of both watches
