One Breitling I'd recommend as soon as you can find one is a Quartz Navitimer. Has the look, just hair smaller and it's a Quartz. Always ready. Great price too, but are rising in value.
The first link is a 130 dollar seiko.

I would really love the breitling cosmonaut they had a few years ago.

yes, that is why I mentioned some other brands making advanced pilot watches somewhere in price between the seiko & breitling (closer to seiko side).
