Looking for a particular image...
I'm looking to see a comparison between the Gold Croc and the Camel Croc. Does anyone have both of these that they can take a photo of for me. The Breitling website I feel does not show a very good comparison. When I get my Navi World in a few months I will be getting the Black Croc along with either the Brown/Camel or Gold. I've seen the Brown but I thought the camel or gold one might be nice as well but I have never really seen them both next to each other.... anyone?

You gold is nice. The camel is a pale yellow. I would prefer the brown, black, and camel on the navi world.

This is the Gold (I should really put it on the sales forum as I do not use it)

Nobody has these to compare?????? From what I barely see out there the Gold and Brown look identical! It would b nice to see all 3(camel, brown and gold) in one shot to really show the difference if possible.

Anyone?

The brown is significantly darker than the gold.

The gold looks great with just about every dial combo.

sorry to hijack the thread but I have been debating whether or not the gold does actually match anything besides a silver or blue dial. I have a gold calf on a steelfish but I've been thinking of throwing it on my black dialed chronomat....anyone have any thoughts?

This will be on a White(Silver) Dialed Navi World. FYI

But the colors of the crocs I think I may just order them all then pick one wince I can't find that picture anywhere.
I'm 100% on the black croc but would like to get the brownish one as well, just can't decide which one.

I would chose the gold as it suits most combinations.

Plus, the gold gets much darker with time but not as dark as the brown itself.

Search "camel." There are threads on here showing the camel strap. The gold and camel are not even close. Gold is what most would call light brown or medium tan. Camel is a bright yellow/tan.

Here's a white dial World on the Camel strap - compare to the Gold strap already pictured on this thread.

I think the camel strap looks pretty cool, but the gold would be much more versatile in my opinion.
