The Breitling Watch Source Forums

My favourite is the Montbrillant Datora, beautiful face, perfect size at 43mm and quite a complicated movement. I do own one on a white/silver dial and love it!

Whats your all time favourite Breitling??

I like the complications 19, but just wish it were a little larger.

If I could pick just one Breitling that represents what I like most about the brand it would have to be the Navi 01.

Changes all the time for me. It used to be the black dialled steel Legende, then I fell in love with the white dial steel Motors T. More recently the steel Transocean Chrono became firm favourite.
Then I saw the platinum Montbrillant Eclipse with platinum bracelet on here recently. That one pretty much rings all my Breitling bells at the moment.
If Breitling ever brought out a Navi 01 LE in platinum with a display back, that would be my answer if this question got asked in the future.

Navi and the Mark VI, either regular chrono or Comp 19, white dial. Have you tried the Comp 19? It wears quite large for its diameter.

I have to go with my Navi Olympus at the moment. Although the Navi 01 Limited is right there.

The Navi World is one of my fav's as well and would move up my list if they could make it as 48mm. I would also want the Datora if it was bigger. My current #1 and #2 are the Chronomatic 1461 and the Navi 1461, both with such complicated movements that they each need 38 jewels and over 450 parts.

Wow, "best" is a tricky word for something as subjective as this. But my favourite would be something from the Navitimer line. I'm not so fussy about which one within that line. I've got a Cossie at the moment but i think i'd probably be as happy with a standard Navi.

After owning 17 lings, I now have one, and it is by far my favorite and the best ling in my opinion.

The Blackbird Big Date of course. It's always been my favorite Breitling.

Sorry you got fed to the wolves at RWF over a decision about trading a watch and thought some were just outright rude! Enjoy the forum and any watch brand you decide to own...

Ask me tomorrow and I'll probably give you a different answer than today. I'm pretty fond of my Headwind, but overall something Navitimer.
