Can you feel the rotor swinging when you move the chrono cockpit around?

To a certain extent yes, but it's not disturbing.
Enjoy your CC, like I do mine! A wonderful watch with almost any dial (I went for the older version blue dial though - scan is missing because of no time to do but I'll do my best).

A great watch! I sold mine a couple of months ago (because I wanted to fund another watch), but still miss it!
Maybe I get another one sometime - it would be the one with bronze dial and brown leather strap.

Wow, knowing what the markup on Breitlings is, that AD must have really wanted to get rid of that.

I picked up a Chrono Cockpit a few months ago (bronze dial, steel bracelet) and you can definitely feel the movement when you move your wrist around. It took me a little while to get used to it as I had not had an automatic watch before this one, but you barely notice it after a month or so. I kind of like the feeling of the movement now when I do notice it!

Enjoy the watch .... I personally think the Chrono Cockpit is the nicest Breitling in the lineup ... granted, I'm biased!
