Sounds like a fine watch. I've had offers of thousands of dollars for
the Breitling and one of these days I'll let it go I guess. It has an
E6B outer and inner bezel that I've never used. The thing weighs a ton.
I pondered a Rolex Submariner, but decided that $6K for a watch was
overdoing things. The Breitling is probably in the same class.
The Citizen has an E6B bezel, too; I use it occasionally, just to remind
myself how. I'm not sure it's big enough to be usable in flight, though. The
watch would weigh a ton if I'd gotten the stainless version, but, instead,
it weighs about the same as a significantly smaller Citizen Eco-Drive in
stainless I bought a decade ago. It's pretty comfortable.
