Help with Breitling Analog+Digital watch for a gift

[stockae92]

I have had multiple Aerospace and Aerospace EVO. Currently own Emergency and Speedmaster X-33.

They are all very different. You really need to figure out what's more important.

Aerospace (and EVO) are great looking watch, with no buttons. Using them is ok, but setting them is a PIA. Having said that, I think they are comfortable, and low profile, great as a daily wear.

The Emergency (previous gen, not the current gen) is like an Aerospace, with an emergency beacon module attached to it. To me, its THE Breitling to own, simply because there is nothing else like it. You can say the emergency beacon module is expensive to maintain, one more things to break, and you will never do it. But so does 200m or 300m water resistance rating. haha. Compare to the Aerospace, its A LOT thicker and larger, though its still comfortable (to me) since its all titanium. So it may not be an every man watch.

The Omega Speedmaster X-33 is my fav Speedmaster. I think its the perfect daily watch. It has great feature and they are very useable (unless you are talking about the phase timer on the X-33 Skywalker, I am still confused on that, haha). Some people doesn't like how it looks, but to me it looks perfect as a tool watch.

If I can only have one amount these, I would pick the Gen 2 X-33, cause they are very good at what they are designed for (I have my complain regarding the X-33 Skywalker though). The next would be Emergency simply because its an Aerospace, just more unique. Finally it would be the Aerospace EVO.
