hi guys...was wondering if i can see some pics of your Chrono Evolution. Breitling has so many differernt dial combos which is great...but most AD's I go to only have one or two in the case at a time...so how did you ultimately decide which dial without seeing most of them in person? Do you just look at the catalog and ask them to get the piece in that catches your eye? Thanks for the pics.

And when you've found your top two from the fitting page, ask your AD to bring them home so you can see them in person. It only takes them a phonecall to their distributer.

The EVO looks much better on the wrist than on the screen, you really need to see them in person. And a different color band can completely transform the watch. Also you should consider what they look like at night. The green dial is fairly uncommon but looks truly stunning IMHO.

Here are some pictures in different lighting conditions.

Txturbo that second picture you posted looks amazing. What a great lume shot. I love pictures like that. Sometimes for the hell of it I hold my watches near the lamp just to light em up. Love the glow.

Yes - cool photo. It captures the blue of the AR well too.

A couple of recent ones from a trip I took across the States:

Vastly inferior to some photos you'll see on here - but they show how the 'silver' dial seems a different colour in different environments...
