I am tempted by a limited edition Breitling Aerospace Evo - only 300 produced - but the cost difference from the standard model is rather eye watering:
Still - it's only money right?

What's the main difference between standard and limited?
Instant reaction is....nope, pass.
Even after studying it, I'm still unmoved – especially for £4K.
Only 300 pieces too, doesn't change its lack of appeal.
dial colour and strap option. Classic Breitling colour = yellowOriginally Posted by manivxr
Made the trip over to see it? 👍🏼
I like it. Very different. Not sure if I would tire of the yellow dial quickly. The new canvas straps look great and can be bought for circa £100. The watch head is therefore £4,000 or so. Wonder if the standard bracelet would complement the dial?
Another diff from standard is the DLC (?) finish on the case on Ti. Plus a deployant clasp (I am hoping) - which can cost hugely disproportionate amounts - a good few hundred quid - not sure if a standard Ti bracelet would work on a DLC cased watch?
Very unique, Breitling knows well how to made limited edition watches, they make too many actually, but this is very nice and perfect for the Summer.
Did not appreciate it was DLC case.
Is this the "Night Mission" edition that was featured on ABlogtoWatch yesterday? I actually quite like it on the strap, much more than I thought I would. I also really like the yellow dial but I think it needs to be on a black canvas. The price though
The "standard" night mission Aerospace is £3.8k so £400 extra for the limited edition yellow, I'd struggle to justify either "night mission" over the standard model, however being limited edition residuals ought to be better than a normal Aerospace.

I really liked the "standard" Night Mission when one was posted here but don't like the yellow face - personally I would pay extra for the non-limited version.
I've got the 'volcano' black version and I love it!
Go for it, you won't be disappointed!
The volcano has it all bar the ltd status. The yellow is... Yellow
Gray
Now that is how you do 'tactical'. Awesome.
Had a look at the volcano version at local Fraser Heart. I won't be doing any business with them - there was a >1mm gap between the crown and the case - they tried to tell me it was normal. The standard Evo had no such gap.
The volcano version did look smart and not being a ltd edition is less rare (and costs less) than the 30th anniversary yellow edition. it has the fold over clasp rather than pin-buckle a big + from me.
Do it !!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I want wrist shots!
Was the crown pulled out?
I had the standard EVO, and the gap was there.
No. Even when crown 'pushed in' to activate items then released the space remained. I would expect the crown to be flush - as it was on the other evo.
Any pictures appreciated to the contrary - but I've been scowering google images and all seem to have flush crowns to cases.
This is a Ltd edition likely to be in considerable demand down the line. If you can get one do it
I've just double checked mine and I do indeed have a gap between the case and the crown, It's a small gap but it's dfinately there.
Hadn't noticed it previously but now I know it's there I keep looking at it!
