    Three Breitling amigos.

    Just came home after finishing this trilogy. Very pleased. Now I have to build another one. Darn...

    Anyway, Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute A12023, Old Navitimer Mechanique A11022 and Navitimer automatic A232G09NP. Currently very happy and wanted to share them here.

    I love the Navitimer. I would personally take it over the Speedy which is everywhere nowadays ( I have both).

    My pick would be the middle one. Stunning.

    I have always preferred the Navitimer of the two. Have to say I particularly like the one on the right with the inverted dial with the brushed finish, Japanese market?

    Very nice trio, but maybe at least one of them should be on a leather strap?

    Nice to see some Breitling love here. I’m also taken by the '95 Navitimer.

    Would be the cosmonaute for me. A variation of the navitimer I would like to own at some point.

    Owning an 809 Cosmonaute, I'd have to go the other way and take the black dialed 12 hour Navitimer.

    I sometimes look wistfully at 806s

    I disdain broken lume on hands. So its hard to find a decent 806.

    The mechanique is great, not seen that variant before. Love the blued hands and the indices - prob the best choice for a leather strap.

    I tried my a23322 on leather for all of 3 seconds before running back to that awesome bracelet.

    Definitely missing something with a 24 hour dial. Do love an 806 though.

    Yep. The wife has been wearing the one on the left hence the pink strap.
