Lets just see how this goes...

I have omitted these, rightly or wrongly, purely because we knew about the Navi 01, TO, TOC before and the C-M BS and the CM 44 SS plus others because the poll will only allow 10 choices !

Omitted below.

Navitimer 01
Transocean
Transocean Chrono
Chronomat 44 "SS"
Chrono-Matic BS
Chrono-Matic 1461 Ltd

The Flying Fish is by far my favorite new Breitling. The weird bezel font doesn't bother me as much in person as it does in pictures and with it being brushed it's just that much better. Plus a black dial with black subs and batons is the perfect combo for the B01.

I understand the reasons for your omissions, but my lone choice would unquestionably be the Navi 01 on standard Navi bracelet. That's the one watch of the 2011 models that I would actually buy, and likely will buy at some point. Barring that, I'd probably pick the Navi 1461 or the SOH 42, but honestly, I probably wouldn't buy either one, so I didn't bother voting.

Transocean is the only model I would consider this year...I'm kind of iffy on the metal bracelet, but like the brown strap.

I'd go for the "Flying Fish". I love the all black dial and matte finish. For some reason it only comes on the DP or OR strap, which is a shame. The brushed Pilot bracelet on the Chronomat 01 LE is a work of art!

I am looking at trying the new limited edition Montbrillant 01 so I can have access to an in-house movement from the Breitling range which fits with my size requirements. Plus, I think that with the arabics, white dial, and brown croco, that watch would be killer!

I actually like a few of the new models, but it's the Chronomat GMT for me. :D

Seeing some of the other versions of the Chrono Superocean, I'll admit, I kind of like it so that's the one I voted for. I do like the flying fish, but given the choice, I'd buy the limited edition Chronomat with the display back before that.

The 1461 is my favourite of the options provided. Just a great looking watch all round!

Pity I could not include the other 6 because Its very interesting to see the results. Maybe the Mod's can open it up to 16 options?
