Flying B NO.3

[PaulVanDyk]

I don't understand. Almost every trusted dealer has the Breilting Flying B yet none have the "simpler" Flying B NO.3 version (which I personally like a lot more). Why is that?

With slow sales of Flying B Chrono it only seems logical to me all they have to do is tweak a few of the components they already have and there you.....got a new model out.

I agree, this is a nicer piece than the chrono.

the 7750 seconds @6 is too unreliable for a rep costing $500+

And given the big date complication that would be the only movement that could go in it probably.

The seconds at 6 is not a problem on a non chrono.

The non chrono version is also smaller and can be worn easier.

my problem with the chrono is its size. i mean the BCE is about as big as i'd like to go due to the size of my wrist. the chrono flying b is just TOO DAMN BIG.

58.2 x 38.5mm vs 51.40 x 34.50mm. the NO.3 would be an awesome watch for "wrist size challenged".

i e-mailed a few dealers and all i got is "NO. Won't be replicated. There is no available movement to accurately rep this watch"

This is the only Breitling non-chrono watch that i like. sux they won't rep it
