I'm partial to the 38...it has a much more traditional look and the wine colored one gives it sort of a Deco flavor.  BUT, my favorite Breitling is the COLT GMT Automatic!

I like them both allot and one is on my radar for hopefully 2008 if not sooner. :)

Of the 2 if I had to pick right now I think I would go for the 46. Just like the look a little better than the 38. But do like them both lol. :cool:

An awesome watch. hand6.gif

I don't have any hands on with these but I do know what I like, and I like the big bad 46. Looks just fantastic! Brown or blue for me please. And I think while you're at it you might as well get both the rubber and mesh.

The logo looks awesome on that clasp. I really like the way this one looks. It's a lot less fiddly than most of their watches. I woul love to have one of these as my first breitling. Might be a while though I just bought another speedmaster.

The 46 definitely looks better - but it's already too big. For me that is. Don't like the small seconds on the 38 at all. The mesh bracelet is a great idea. Prices are to be expected as "too high for what they are". There have been statements on TZ-UK that these will be definitely in the USD 3k+ price range:

Includes also some comments on watches seen "in flesh".

As there have been 2 very classic divers introduced in Basel, my decision was to wait for the new Longines Legend Diver in it's classic compressor case. Price will also be high - but what I've seen so far (announced USD 1600 range) it will be much more reasonable.

At retail? :? Don't know but if I can find it in October or beyond on sale for a good price. :cool:

But at retail I can not see anyone putting it out for less than $2200. May have to wait for a pre-owned or cash in stock or hit the lotto. :shock:
