Pros

1. You get used to the size.
2. It's got 3 digital time zone displays - 'watch' (same as the analogue display) time, second time zone and a separate UTC display.
3. It has 2 (loud) alarms - one for each of the 2 digital time zones
4. (get this Aerospace owners) IT HAS A BACKLIGHT ... AND NO STUPID TIME BEEPER
5. If you get the black face and turn the display off, it's difficult to see the digital part at all... it looks like an analogue watch.
6. It has a circular slide rule around the edge - I sometimes even use it!!

(caveat to 4 above - I believe that a new aerospace is in the pipeline, which will have a backlight!)


Cons


1. Its a Breitling.
