I know there was a poll on what dial people favor for the Chronomat Evolution. I think the vast majority of folks liked the blue or black dial. With that said, do you guys like the dial with the hour markers and silver subdials or the roman numeral dials that have the same color subdials? I kinda like the roman numeral dial in blue.

My fave would actually be black dial/black subdials with Arabic numerals, but I have only seen that on a Japanese LE. (Even better, black MOP with black subdials, but again, that's on a Japanese LE.) Otherwise, I vote for black/black with Romans. Blue is nice, too. Either way, I think you can tell my preference is to have dial and subdials match.

Breitling needs to offer and LARGER EVO. It's surprising that they have not already done this with the success of their SA sales.

That depends on the case: blue dial with the steel case and blue or beige ivory dial with the TT case but ALWAYS with Roman numerals

Hey guys,

I have a quick question and I don't want to start a new thread :wink:

Now that we have the new Chronomat B-01 is it going to replace the regular Chronomat? Is the regular Chronomat still going to be available going forward alongside the Chronomat B-01?

I just want to confirm since on the Breitling site they have both models so I am assuming that they'll be offering both going forward and the B-01 is not a replacement...

Thanks,

Thanks to the Breitling "fitting" option on their web site (one of the web's slower sites IMO) I would love to have this B01 "grail" configuration...

But fortunately I already own this one of a kind Chronomat configuration...

Actually, I would like to see the new Chronomat or the Chronomat B01 with "full lume" Romans, indices and hands like my absolutely adored (but unfortunately now gone) Crosswind...
:wink:

Best,
Ron

Thanks man, unfortunately though that Crosswind never belonged to me. I think you meant to address Ron :wink:

Cheers mate!

Yes, I'm a bit curious why Ron let that Crosswind go, too. Was that by choice, or was it a forced or otherwise unavoidable parting?
