Keep the night mission.
With a collection like yours though I could quite easily let them both go.
I now have two, out of a total of 17 watches (which is too many, I know). However, they're both vey different...
My thinking is that there's space for both of them - particularly as the Night Mission doesn't come with a bracelet; I also love the Tuxedo dial on the E79362. Then again, it's probably a bit excessive in some ways.
Any thoughts?
Keep the night mission.

I like the bottom one.
I don't know anything about them but to my eyes the top one looks a little dated.
I'd say that there's space for both, but then I do have three versions of the X-33. I wouldn't be able to choose between that pair, they both have pleasing yet differing features.
It's all about scale - in the scope of a 17 watch collection I think there is certainly space for both. a 5 watch collection, less so.
I'd keep both - in the scheme of things (in other words your collection Tony) both are small fry - both are easy to maintain and different enough to warrant keeping I think.
All the best

Think it'd be the Night Mission as a keeper for me, I like the more modern aesthetic.
I used to brush Breitlings off as being too fussy for my tastes but the more I look at the E79362 the more I appreciate the tiny details. The concentric pattern on the outer dial and the chapter ring in particular.
Oh god, I'm not so sure anymore...
Probably best to sell them both and get a B-1 though

I personally wouldn't get two; they look pretty much the same to me.
Excessive - probably
Different - Yes...I suppose
Favourite - bottom one for me
Tony, they are both great watches, so good luck with whatever you decide.
The Night Mission has a more casual look about it with its black case and strap, with the bracelet the tux dial is something a little smarter - if one had to go then I'd make my decision based on how they fit in with the rest of the collection.
I'd say you also need to buy an E75362 :D
I would say keep both, they are different enough that it would be warranted. However if it was keep only one, then for me, its the NM. That looks seriously cool.

I would keep one, and that would definitely be the NM. A somewhat illogical watch, but very photogenic.

I'd keep both - the E79362 is dressier - the classic one watch candidate (if there is such a thing) but the NM is so cool looking. Both different enough to sit in a larger collection.
I'd keep both. I love my Aero Evo. I have the black dial but I would happily add a Night Mission. There's plenty between them. If you had the yellow dial version it would be even easier to keep both of course. Don't do it. You'll miss one!

Keep both, but if one needs to make way...............................tbh I've no idea which one I'd let go, probably the night mission and only on the basis I prefer the bracelet on the E79362.
Another vote for keeping both. great photos too.
The NM for me as well. I note that the NM was included in your recent 'collection in a single shot' post, the other not. This might mean something?
I too prefer the Night Mission, the canvas (?) strap suits it perfectly.
Cheers..

NM all night long. Some pvd watches look bob on, others cheap. The NM is in the bob on camp.
I'm not suggesting you need to be 'bob on camp' to wear it.
I am partial to the Tuxedo dial because I own the same exact one. Never been a huge fan of the EVO as I feel the watch is now too big and the proportions don’t quite look right anymore. With that said, the NM is a fairly decent update. Unfortunately I am not a fan of canvas straps.
A caveat with the PVD finish is that it can not be repaired or polished should you are unfortunate enough to inflict damage on the case. This is one other reason why I got rid of my Breitling B50 Cockpit Night Mission.
Both lovely, but as you’ve already intimated you only really need one ana-digi.
Not universally loved, but I plumped for the Evo - which is about half way between your two - so ideal IMHO
I bought the charcoal canvas strap for it to change it up a bit.
But for some reason I didn’t like it - so it’s permanently on the excellent Ti bracelet .

Both lovely watches Tony. However, for me the advantage is the best of class.

The Aerospace EVO is long overdue for a refresh. I would wait for Basel before making any decisions.
Numbers instead of batons. 60 second track replaces 24 hour scale rehault.
Love the black one Tony.
Had an Evo in the past and fancy another.
I prefer the EVO as it has a little more versatility. Would want the rubber strap on it though.

The Night Mission looks way better in those pics, but I find black watches don't look so good on the wrist. I think wrist shots would help to decide.
Black watches are overrated. They don’t always look good and tend to look out of place in certain situations. Unfortunately some with untrained eyes would think you are wearing a very nice Casio G-Shock. The all metal silver titanium Aero is far more versatile than the NM.
Hi Tony,
You have previously, I think, simultaneously owned a Pam 337 and a 512, both similar and yet (imo) very different beasts, but in this instance overall sufficiently similar that you parted with the 337 (for which I m grateful as it now sits on my wrist.)
A rhetorical question, but what given the above, in this instance is it that YOU think is sufficiently different that you are considering keeping both?
All the best
Gary
I like both of them but I’ve always really liked the Night Mission since it was released.
If you have to pick one I’d say definately the Night Mission.
Tony
Really no point keeping both.....
If you like , keep the night mission and sell me the other .....
Not that I have been on the hunt for one, I am just looking out for you as I can imagine having both must be causing you stress ....
I am here to help .....LOL
