Tag isn't my flavor ...
The Breitlings are really nice and I do like Breitling... Although top choice would be Daytona C in this scenario... |

They are all great and historical watches. There is no bad choice for a WIS.

Yes, Daytona is my choice of those pictured - like the heritage of the Breitling but not their designs so much.

I'd pick the D500, but I've owned 2 Breitling chronos, very good watches and the pilot bracelet was probably as nice if not nicer than the oyster when sans glidelock.

Nothing wrong with Breitling or Heuer, but I much prefer the Daytona out of those. Also, Breitlings look better on strap IMO as I don't like that bracelet design. YMMV.

The Daytona by a mile! The Breitlings are far too cluttered looking and the Tag, well it's a Tag.

Of those four Daytona by a mile. Now throw a Speedy Pro in the mix and things get more interesting.

I actually had a Tag very close to your model...and loved it. What a great watch. I stupidly sold it a while back.
It remains one of a very short list I wish I had back out of all the watches that I've flipped. But...the D500 would have to take top honors for me from that group. |

Yes by a long way, I like the 41mm Chronomat though.

Yeah, I don't understand the disdain I see for Breitling around here sometimes. They're not my thing, personally, but they have quite a history.
I'm pretty sure this guy out earns most of us in these forums, and he collects Breitlings. |

Is the Daytona your favourite of these 4 chronos?
Quote:
The Chronomat is beautiful but they spoilt recent models a touch with the 'Galactic' bezel and the 'Square' on the dial....in late 2014 they released the Chronomat Airborne models with a traditional bezel and no square on the dial so that's why I bought a 41mm with white dial and 44mm with black dial. Both very different watches for different occasions: And this is the normal Chronomat with galactic bezel and the square:

IMO the Daytona trumps the others.
I would echo some of the other posts about the Speedy. As you are fortunate to have a large wrist I think you would rock one of these very easily Or maybe ad the white dial DaytonaC |

I love those Brietling bracelets for comfort, but all that shiny metal is a bit too much for me these days. I like the looks of the Tag face, but I personally find their bracelets grab too much arm hair.

I expected to see a different field. This one is too easy for me. Daytona hands down
