    This beauty arrived yesterday.Been after an aerospace but spotted this thought I give it try.
    First impressions love the watch it's self but need to change the strap.
    I'm thinking black leather, anyone any advice on a decent strap for it.

    Still one of Breitling's finest in my opinion.
    I agree, a great watch, esp for the price.

    The black calf would be tough to beat, Col, especially with the white stitching tying in with the dial colours so nicely... Otherwise, it's got to be the military canvas

    What Ross has said, but I don't think it looks out of place on the pro 2 rubber Col.

    Good luck Col, don't forget to look at the military canvas too, I think that would compliment this watch quite well too!

    Another thought, Col, if you do go down the black/white route.

    The Superocean black strap with white lining might work too, the 231X.

    No harm in experimenting with other colours too. You'd be surprised how well the khaki green military canvas goes with many of my Breitling's.

    It' been a while since I owned a Breitling, but this recent arrival has put that right...

    Love the idea of a yellow dial on a DLC watch, have you got a breitling strap with the yellow flashes? If you ain't get one!!!

    Every brand has its staple model and the navitimer is breitlings flagship model in my eyes , I've owned an avenger sea wolf and it was a beast of a watch , still regret letting that one go

    They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, many wouldn't, but it's Breitling for me! :)

    Your not wrong, a Chronomat is a very good choice.

    I'm not sure I've ever posted a photo of all three of mine together.

    Left to right: 2015 Navitimer World, 2014 Avenger Seawolf II, 2013 Avenger Skyland...

    The Skyland has to be one of my favorite Breitlings from a few years ago, that and the brushed version of the blackbird big date, I would actually say I prefer both to my flying fish!

    Very nice collection. I guessing that Seawolf would look great on a black rubber strap.

    Are there any Skyracer Raven out there?

    Yes I'm sure it would - the Pro II that the Skyland's on is supremely comfortable. I quite like having the variety... Skyland on rubber, Seawolf on steel and Navitimer on leather.

    I do really like this.

    I was never really a fan of Breitling but I've come to appreciate them more and more over time...This one in particular is very nice.

    They're an itch that I may have to scratch.

    Very nice.

    I really miss this one.




    I bought an Aerospace (again!) last month but for some reason I never really got on with the ti bracelet, just as well the Aerospace wears well with a NATO.

    After a slight wobble where I had considered selling this to fund a Speedy Pro, normal service has been resumed and finding a different source of funding is now under way.
