Hi, I am new to this forum and about to purchase my first Breitling! I have for a while been inspired by the standard Navitimer, black face ,black leather strap. I was about to place my order when the AD asked me what type of dial I wanted, Arabic or Baton? Since the Breitling website only shows it with Baton's the question threw me. I think the Baton's look clean, simple and un cluttered, but struggled to find any recent pictures showing it with the arabic Dial.

Does anyone have any opinions on this, or indeed any pictures showing the Arabic?.......thanks.

Most Breitlings have a busy dial & that is what I like about them. I really like the Navitimer with Arabic numerals.

Decisions, decisions...

If you go to the Japanese fitting site - http://www.breitling.co.jp/fitting/

You can mock up both the arabic and baton versions and see which looks best to you.
