    Breitling Airwolf - loving it!

    Picked this up from Walter last week and despite having had many Breitlings along the way, this is my first analogue - digital and I have to say I am loving it!!

    Nice.

    Personally I'd definitely go for one of those over an Aerospace...

    Great watch! I had one of these and couldn't take to it on the polished bracelet but loved it on the ocean racer strap. Changes the watch completely. Beautiful case back too.

    This one's on a Pro III rather than an Ocean Racer, by the look of it, although I'm sure it would look good on one of those too...

    Fantastic watch, and far better deblinged with the rubber IMO.

    I had one of these (and loved it) but flipped it because the jet engine ‘blades’ on the caseback dug into my wrist and made it really uncomfortable.

    Had a mint 2011 Airwolf LE Centennial of Naval Aviation. Stupidly sold it to fund a Breitling B50 Cockpit NM that ended up being a disappointment...

    Good rendition. Breitling still sell the same movement but rebadged, bigger, black steeled (and re-priced at over £5.5K MRP) in their Pro range: Chronospace Military - it’s lost the amazing propeller blades but has an echo chamber like the Omega X-33 to be a direct competitor in loud alarms.

    Over the years I’ve had the Aerospace, B1’s, Airwolf’s, B50 and most recently the B55 and liked them all, for many reasons it’s always good to have a Breitling Super Quartz in the collection.
    In case anyone is curious, out of them all the nicest IMHO was the B55, as wells as their stunning appearance I particularly liked the fact that I could use the functions without worry of battery loss due to the easy charging aspect and the extra reassurance of the 100m water resistance. Having said that it would appear that the B55/50’s are no where near as reliable as the B1,s, Airwolf’s etc and they are over twice the price - which makes your Airwolf something of a bargain.
