I wanted a strong lightweight(titanium) watch with both anolgue and a digital display for a second time zone and i ended up with one of these.

Pr50 Titanium Seven t34.7.487.62 - Tissot Pr50 wrist watch

This watch is titanium and has a 988.333 movement.

This Breitling uses the same movement and also uses a titanium case

Breitling 2009 - BREITLING | INSTRUMENTS FOR PROFESSIONALS TM

The Tissot can be bought for £130, whereas the Breitling with same movement and metalic case costs £1940!!!!!!!!
The current Aerospace does not use the 988.333 movement (it's not thermocompensated). Might use the .352 movement.. not sure. But anyway, pretty sure Breitling heavily modify all the movments they use?
