| Post subject: | Dial Style Change? |
I own a Breitling Crosswind and love the design except for the upright numbers in all 3 sub dials. I was wondering if Breitling would/could change these numbers from the plain, upright style to the "newer", italic style numbers? Right now my watch is at Breitling USA for a complete service and I guess now would be the time to get something like this done, if possible. Does anyone know if Breitling can slightly change the style of a dial? Thanks, Eric. |

Agreed. The Roman numerals look very classy. ~Brian |

I can guarantee You, that Breitling will refuse putting a Chrono Evo dial into a Crosswind. But You can still put Your Crosswind on the market, and, if You get a good price, go for a new Evo. BG Thomas |

I want to keep the Crosswind dial with the big Roman numerals. I just want to modify my dial slightly. I guess I will have to ask Breitling if they have an old black, Crosswind dial lying around. When the Crosswind first came out, the sub dials had upright numbers. Actually, number #4 at the bottom of the page (see link below) is my exact watch. The newer Crosswind version, watch #2 at the bottom of the page, used a different style; the style I would like to add to my watch. I'll keep you posted. Thanks. http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_details/Windrider_4.html |
