I was just at Andrew Michaels website and they say the Cockpit uses cal.13 movt.
I'm sure mine is a cal.49.
My mistake....Or theirs? :?
I confuse easily.

Reference here says 49: http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... r_118.html

Reference here says 13 has chronograph, and date: http://www.breitlingsource.com/details/B13.html

EDIT: second reference changed.

Yes the Cockpit uses the B49 movement.

The reference number on the caseback tells you - e.g. A49350. The second and third digit (i.e. 49) denotes the calibre.

:yeahthat The B13 is a chronograph movement. The B49 is a three-hand, non-chrono movement. The Cockpit range uses both.
