I'm looking for a new watch, dunno exactly what to buy...I want a watch that's light like the Aerospace or the Emergency, I was gonna buy the emergency but I'm a bit reluctant about it. I prefer it to be a big, 43mm and above. Budget up to 4000 euros.

suggestions?

Thanks!

The Emergency! It IS 43 MM in diameter. And it is a thick watch at 15.7 mm thickness. If you like the emergency, than go for it. They wont be made for much longer. :lingsrock:

Not a lot of big lightweight models from Breitling. You could look for an older Chrono Avenger, Chrono Avenger M1 or Avenger Seawolf which are all titanium. These give you 43-44mm with less weight.

Next in line after Aerospace as far as weight would be the B1/Airwolf and new, very large chronospace at 48mm. These are still relatively light for Breitlings.

I was gonna get the yellow emergency. I just don't think that it's suitable for all occasions that's why i'm reluctant.

The watch doesn't have to be a breitling though...

oh and how much is the chronospace roughly?

With that type of budget, do yourself a favor and get the FULL LING!

Many possibilities out there for you!

:woohoo:

Lol up to 4000 euros MAX. I think the chronospace is one of those watches that looks a bit ugly in the pics but great when you wear it. Although I haven't tried one out yet, all the videos and wrist shots look awesome.

Unless you have any other suggestions... :D
