I love them both, but opted
for the modern versions of them š. I do prefer the Navitimer of the modern versions and wish they would have added āGenevaā under āBreitlingā on the dials of the 2 AVIās. It just seems like it needs another line in my opinion. 
To me the Navitimer is as perfect of a reproduction as any watch ever reproduced. I thank āWatchFredā for that.
Vintage Breitling dilemma
Do you have a favorite between these two pilot chronographs ? 1963 Breitling Co-Pilot AVI MK2.1 ref. 765 - 41 mm diameter - Caliber Venus 178 1962 Breitling Navitimer MK2.2 ref. 809 with AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association) dial - 40 mm diameter ...
They have released very similar re-editions in recent years
I've looked at the Navitimer several times, still a couple out there if you want the vintage look but new moving parts
I find these watches interesting and appealing
but not to the point of wanting one for myself. The pilotās watch theme isnāt one I really relate to. Best, Emmanuel

Wonderful trio!
I'm with you concerning the extra line of text on the AVIs. And I would personally remove "Breitling" from the Navitimer, as in the vintage example above. Thanks for sharing, Steve. Best, Emmanuel
Thanks, Emmanuel! I guess
they couldnāt resist putting their name on top. I thought there was an original example from 1959 with āBreitlingā spelled out, but I canāt find a picture of it. Have a great weekend!
I have looked at Breitling watches many times, and never warmed up to them.
The Navitimer is way too busy for me; so, by default, not love, per se, it would be the co-pilot.
I understand how you feel.
The dial of the Navitimer has always felt too busy to me too. But I find the beaded bezel exquisite. Best, Emmanuel
Co-Pilot for me
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the other, itās just WAY too busy for my liking
I completely understand this feeling: I've always looked at the Navitimer
from a distance because the dial is too busy for me too. But I like the beaded bezel very much. Best, Emmanuel
