Hi guys I have been in a bit of a sell off mode lately but managed to hold on to this UN. It is one I have always wanted. Now to find another Breitling. Any suggestions in the 43-44 mm range? I would like to do it in the Navitimer series.

Best, Mark

Datora - 43mm on the nose. I have the white dial - love it. Day, date, and month.

I saw that model and like the look. I also like the complication. Now just save the cash!

I bought the Olympus cause I can't afford that watch. Don't be cruel, don't post that pics.

About the U.N. very nice, but I prefer round watches.

That is a very nice watch Mah. I came across it when I was reading the UN catalogue last week and although I generally prefer round watches, I'm very keen to try that one on. How does it wear?

Did you keep your other UN, the maritimer Chronometer if I remember correctly?

As for watches in the Navi collection with those specs, my advice would be for the Montbrillant 1903 as it is simply a stunning watch :D Otherwise just a standard Navi or the 1461 would both work very well indeed. Good luck, a nice place to be.

Thanks for the Navi input, I have been looking at the 43 mm Montbrilant Datora. A classic Black dial on Black croc. I actually let the Marine Chrono go. It was 41 MM and looked dated to me. A older period. A very nice watch but I just never "bonded". The Dual time wears large but it is a lower profile so it is comfortable but it is big. The case is 42mm side to side but add the lugs and the diagonal and it come off large. I have a 8" wrist so it works for me. It is a bit more up to date on the style. I would like to own one other UN though. The Marine Chronometer 43mm black dial on corc. Like everyone so many watches never enough $$$.
