check out the 41mm Galactic or the Super ocean Heritage 42.

Wow, they make dozens of models. I love Navitimers

Check out the Super Ocean 42, many options/choices/combinations. Very good watch.

If the Rolex is the one you want, I would recomend saving and waiting to get the one you really want.

Hi i have a omega and a rolex just now so really fancy a breitling, whats the best one for holding value? i have a friend who want £2500 for a chronomat but its 15 years old and i have seen them for as little as £1200?
is the red arrows a good one to get?

air kings should be in reach , failing that , seamaster. or a dynamic the 1999 version. oops , just re read the op ,,, omega all the way.

If you have a specific watch in mind I would wait, if you are just wanting to buy I would consider an Omega Great White, if Breitling is your choice I would go( for the price) with an Aerospace Ti (yes it's quartz but it's highly regarded IMHO). Finally if quartz is a no no to you but you still want a B. look at a preowned Hercules, it will cost very little an allow you to save some money. Great watch for the price. Good luck and let us know what you get.

I have a chonomat 01 and it is awesome.
My next targets will be a Navitimer World and a SS Daytona.

If you look hard, you can find a real nice Avenger (or Avenger Skyland) with a SS bracelet, real nice looking and good quality piece.
