Sorry RJRJRJ I tried to think of all possibilities but guess I forgot that one. :oops:

I said so-so.

Quartz watch doesn't do anything for me anyway, so can't get worked up over it.

Strap - well it's nothing special, but I've been here long enough to remember the lack of love for the Diver Pro (which ironically faded away after the OR was introduced).

I don't mind it. I'm not a raving fan of the Aerospace hence the wishy washy answer but from first impressions it's okay.

Just my opinion of course :D

The more I see this new modified version of the Aero the more I can't believe what Breitling have done.

Just compared them again and there are more changes than you see initially ...

1 small numerals added
2 centre pattern added
3 dial hands changed & look thinner / shorter
4 Lume markers on watch face appear to have gone
5 swiss made logo added
6 24 hour markers have been replaced with new arrangement
7 Not sure if the font of the large numerals has changed slightly
8 introduction of the new rubber strap

Does anybody think "ANY" of the above changes are for the better ?

If you compare against the current model, as still featured on the Breitling website, I think the changes are quite drastic and overall totally unnessary.

The old design is modern and slick looking in keeping with the Aero design whereas this new layout just seams to add clutter to the layout which the Aero just does not need.

TBH, I think that the biggest problem lies in the photograph. The contrast is way off, which makes certain things stick out like a sore thumb. In person, or under normal lighting, I have a feeling that its going to look very much like the older on but with some nice subtle details added.

Undecided atm and would have to see one in the flesh. One thing though looking at the pic it seems quite shiny and looks like brushed SS as opposed to titanium now, or wonder if thats just the pic and lighting?

This one is not for me, but on the other hand the "old" Aerospace wasn't either.
