My choice would be the Aerospace

I've had a couple and love them. I enjoyed this Mark XV white dial but traded it for an Omega for no good reason. The UTC is heavy and thick because of the magnetic shielding core. I didn't like how it felt, so sold it. Good luck in your search. Be sure to try them on first, at a dealer or friend or GTG. Cheers, Cazalea

Thanks for sharing your experience on the UTC/TZC, I will keep that in mind! For the Aerospace, it would have to be the black Titanium model with black dial, folding clasp. I'll keep an eye on eye! Best, E. [nt]

Here’s a off-beat choice

I had this a few years ago ... same movement as the Breitling, same user interface (twist crown) but bigger and all charcoal case & bracelet and great visibility. No prestige in either name or price, though.

Great options list - I'd be tempted by the Mk XII [nt]
