Thank you! I've been lusting after this one since they introduced it in '07 (I originally was bummed that they replaced the B1, but I think they hit the nail on the head with the Airwolf). Walked into the store and asked to see the Airwolf (ok, I also tried on the Aerospace, Bentley, Colt, Emergency, Skyracer, and Chronomat). Couldn't take my eyes off of it, and the $2700 price tag made my jaw hit the floor. Not to mention it was the older face, not the newer one (I also think the vertical lines aren't as stunning as the starburst). Hard to turn down.Beautiful Breitling you have there. I love the older dial on the Airwolf. The newer one with the vertical grooves is not as appealing. Excellent buy and real beauty.
Several reasons (none of which were in the forefront of my mind when I was shopping, although now reflecting over it, I know they were in the back of my mind). I've always liked the Navitimer, I mean that's a classic Breitling watch. However, I also like the modern features available on watch with a digital component. The B1 balanced those nicely, with the whiz-wheel (not that I'll use it, I don't on my Citizen Nighthawk) and the digital component. However, the B1 was discontinued in favor of the Airwolf. The Aerospace doesn't have the whiz-wheel, and the Airwolf does. To me, that just says "Breitling, Instruments for Professionals." I know it's cheesy - but it's true. The Airwolf is the first one I looked at last night, and no other watch could compare. When I first tried it on, the starburst on the face kind of turned me off. I was thinking "man, that looks worse in person than on Breitling's site". After each watch, I'd look back at the Airwolf. By the end of the night I was thinking "man, none of them have that gorgeously unique face. I think that my gut feeling was correct."Phrogpilot, why did you choose the airwolf over the aerospace?
Very nice I approve. I'm just a bit jealous.So last week, I dropped off the Omega to be shipped off for battery replacement/preventative maintenance, etc... I guess I missed it.
PSW and I left the local Breitling authorized dealer tonight with one on my wrist, and one on hers. I had only planned on going into drool - until they offered me 30% off. Picked up the one I've been coveting for a while. The Airwolf:

Citation, which watch of the two in the pictures do you prefer? I have always liked Breitlings and I think either an aerospace or airwolf would be my most likely choice but I'm not close to making a decision.
I agree wholeheartedly. Something was "off" about the Aerospace, it may have been the weight...Between the B-1 and the Aerospace the B-1 wins hands down. For me, I like the look and heavy feel of the larger watch.
Fixed it for you.All in all...you can't go wrong with ANY Breitling. They all are just stunning pieces of engineering.
That sounds like my Omega X-33. I looked at an Aerospace in Titanium, and didn't like it. I liked the stainless...I would love to have had the B-1 done with a brushed finish and titainium like the Emergency. To me, that would be the ultimate B-1.
I'm sure you'll eventually get your hands on one... Patience is a virtue (although with your models, you probably have more than I do!)...You guys sporting my unobtainable Holly Grail Omega X-33 Generation II watch...Stunning as well.
Only on the website. Reed's in Lynnhaven mall had a good selection, but only one Airwolf (lucky for me, I always wanted the blue face!). I still can't get past those ugly vertical lines. I looked at one in Reed's that had a billion lines (vertical, circular, diagonal, etc) on the face. I got vertigo just standing in front of the watch case. Maybe that's their goal? Get you not in "control" of your faculties, and just spending money willy-nilly??Did you by chance see the new Airwolf with the black bezel?
