    The Aerospace peaked with the 42mm model made between 2005-2012. I could never get on with the 2013-Present EVO’s 43mm case, skeleton hour hand and generally unsettling proportions.

    I never...

    Modern Rolex Sub are brilliant. That is my preference. I can appreciate vintage Subs but they are not for me.

    Splendid watches but the cases are massive. This and their near GS prices have eroded their market appeal.

    But I have to say I prefer the dials and hands on these vs their Spring Drive GS...

    I had a B50 Cockpit Night mission. Disappointing watch. Gaining more than the promised 15 seconds a year. Breitling USA claimed the B50 module can not be regulated. Got rid of the watch and took a...

    Breitling advice sought

    Mine is 9 years old and has been my defacto travel all that time.

    Very reliable. I always send it back to Breitling for battery service. Just had a movement overhaul service done about a year ago....

    Good move Jack!

    Brodinkee is a commercialized joke these days. Clymer sold the business and its soul/integrity to the highest bidder. And well here is the result.

    Must hurt losing what amounted...

    Congratulations!

    The purely white Snowflake dial should work much better on the 247. Look forward to your pictures and impressions.

    Good watch and all-rounder. My 42mm Aerospace is currently running at an incredible +1.2 seconds a year. Originally bought it new back in 2013, at the time when the 43mm EVO came to replace it. I...

    I don’t expect to see a second generation 9RA5...
  13. The Grand Seiko SBGC247 Chronograph 'Snowflake' - opinions?

    Please define “”Better””.

    And while at it, can you name ONE Spring Driven, 100% in house, column wheel/ vertical clutch chronograph from another manufacture?

    Leave it alone.

    Learn to pick your battles wisely. This is not one of them.

    You risk they gouging or putting scratches on the watch and introducing other problems you don’t have today.

    Any pro's and con's for a Omega X33 ?

    True but quite frankly at the retail prices of these watches they should be Solar.

    Should not be difficult by Swatch Group/Omega to upgrade these to support solar charging. Changing batteries...

    Any pro's and con's for a Omega X33 ?

    No issues using the crown in my Aerospace. Granted, pushers are easier to operate but have found negative claims regarding the single rotating crown operation of the Aerospace greatly exaggerated

    Digi/analogue recommendation

    From the Breitling side, the 42mm Aerospace and 43mm Aerospace EVO are their very best ana-digi offerings. Also keep in mind the battery in the Aerospace caliber 79 Superquartz movement lasts 3 to 4...
