slykal,

Good choice, welcome to the FULL LING club. I agree the bronze dial is great I always liked that model and the integrated bracelet is cool too.


Thank you!

This thread has hunted my brain all day... I NEED TO HAVE ONE TOO.
Really. bronze dial is out of this world. And the integrated bracelet is so nice, I like how wide it is, really massive!
How could I not notice this one before???


Yes it really is.... I compared it to the both the black and white dial Monty's and both looked dull compared to it, especially the black (no offence to other Monty owners) and the sub dials are out of this world. They have this glossy sheen; it's gorgeous....

Any here's a crappy pic of my new daily watch (replacing my Raymond Weil Sport watch)....I'll try to post better pics of both watches before the week runs out...

Thanks everyone.

Let's get some close up shots of that bracelet!! You have picked up two very solid Breitling pieces! Wow!

I second that, no one else I know has the new copilot... how do you feel it works with a mechanical watch?

More pictures please :)

Thanks everyone.[/quote]

OK so I hate you!

Now that being said, the Monty is superb. When you go bankrupt because of your impulsive watch buying habits.. Let me know I'll take one off your hands.

Now while I absolutely love the Monty I'm quite drawn to the Chronomat Evo with Copilot module. I never expected it to look so good. I love how the watch looks so technical.

Well done. You have two really stunning watches..

Yes I'm very envious!

Two very very nice watches there! Great purchases! :thumbsup:

I must be honest but I'm still not 100% convinced about the Co-pilot on an analogue display watch as I think they are more suited to the digi models like the Aerospace, B-1 and Airwolf. Having said that, it looks better with the Chronomat than I imagined it would (and better than it looks in the Chronolog), but I still think it's a shame Breitling didn't keep the older style analogue UTC module for use with analogue watches. The Co-pilot looks superb with the digi models, so I kind of wish they'd kept both in the line-up.

The prices are kind of expensive compared to the States (and the group buy :o ) but they are still much cheaper than in the UK. I bought the Monty for about 21275 DHR which is about £3120...


Here are some more pics of the Chrono (took about a hundred pics and these are the only ones that look okay LOL I need help...) :
