Hello, I have been searching for this watch with the silver dial and can't seem to find it anywhere. I know it was limited but does anyone have any advice on getting hold of one. It's the only Breitling I really want at this time. Also does anyone know if the standard version also comes with an open back or not. Many thanks. Here's a link from someone lucky enough to have it ![]() |

Yes, the standard version also comes with the display back. |

I know that Breitling are getting a great deal of criticism for many of their new styles and bezels, and I agree that there is much about the current line up that leaves me cold. But I have a number of Breitlings with the old style bezels such as the Avenger and I also own a Navi 01. The Transocean Chrono is a beautiful Breitling and I've been longing for one the silver dial for a while now. I hope to get the limited, but if I can't I'll go ahead and get the non-limited. Either way I have to have this watch ![]() |

PS, as I understand you couldn't get the face as pictured in the link in the OP in the standard. That is, the LE as pictured there has silver sub-dials on silver, but the standard has black sub-dials on silver, eg: http://www.andrewmichaels.co.uk/watches ... her-strap/ |

I do like the silver on silver on the limited though. I also notice that the 'B' is gold and the hands are also edged in what looks like black on the limited, wheras on the standard they are silver and non-etched respectively. For me then it has to be the limited. If I can get it. Does anyone have it? |

You haven't said where you are but if it were me I'd start with the nearest of the forum sponsor ADs. |

Yes, the LE have a rose gold B as opposed to white gold on standard. The hands are the same on all, LE and standard, silver with a thin stripe of lume in the middle. I think the black edges might be just a light reflection. |
