Just checked out the Breitling website - they have a new 2010 section under "models". New SO is also shown along with a few others. Won't ellaborate, check them out and give your responses. |

Is this going to replace the cockpit? (Sorry for only posting links) http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/ ... lactic-41/ http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/ ... -galactic/ http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/ ... lactic-32/ http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/ ... lactic-30/ It's cool they released a ladies automatic http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/ ... automatic/ New Chronospace http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/ ... ronospace/ I think using the B01 bezel on the galactic series is a mistake since I've never been a huge fan of it, even after seeing it in person. I'm glad to see them release the ladies automatic galactic at 36mm, but still not a fan of the bezel. The Chrono Galactic's dial is ugly in my opinion with how it's divided into those 4 sections. I think at 39mm it's going to be way too busy. I think the new Chronospace looks like some of the fakes you see pop up on ebay. Overall, I'm not impressed. The new SO is the best watch released in my opinion. The use of the B01 bezel kills the galactic line and the Chronospace is a mistake. |

ON THE BENTLY SIDE, THE SUPERSPORTS LOOKS GOOD, GREAT. NO GMT OR FLYING B BLACKSTEEL LIKE WE THOUGHT OHH AND JUST THE 2 BLACKSTEELS, NOT 5. SO THATS GOOD AT LEAST |

Someone tell Breitling that they are going in the wrong direction. Ever since the release of the B01, Breitling has moved away from the styling cues that made me like Breitling in the first place! Change is not always a good thing. |

Yeah not a huge fan at all. They still might have a few things up their sleeve but I am not going to hold my breath. No other case for the B01? Really? By the way the black steel gmt is coming, i know that for a fact. |

YUCK At least they have the new models names correctly as the "Galactic", with that stupid Buck Rogers font on the bezel. Anyone else notic that the Galactic Chrono looks like a B01 with a dial change up?? The Blackbird is the only decent one (IMO) and that pisses me off since I hate that they are adding blacksteel to every other model. sad, sad, sad..... what happened to my brand? |

Crap. I just sold all my Invictas and saved to buy my first Breitling (which I just received 5 days ago). I've admired Breitling for years and was so excited to FINALLY own one! Must say I'm not crazy about the new designs BUT it's light years better than what I had before. |

As said earlier, I like the new SO-wave with the colored rehaut. Mixed feelings about the numbers font, but overall I like it. Also like the Supersport and the Legende LE. I think the Cosmonaute LE dial is nice, but still a bit sceptic about the Air Racer. The B01 Chronomat bezel still makes me keep my distance, so the Galactic line is nothing I consider. The Blackbird BS is destroying the Blackbird and I'm not a fan of the Seawolf BS either. I thought it was enough with the ASBS already. The new Chronospace is not for me, never been a fan of mixing hands with a digital display. But overall, I think this is a step in the right direction. Not one, but three (!) releases I like. That hasn't happened in a few years. |

The Galactic 41 and Crono Galactic are nothing more than the Cockpit and Chrono Cockpit with BO1 bezels slapped on them, no? That 4 section dial is from the 2009 Chrono Cockpit and the dial of the 41 is the same(mostly) as the Cockpit. So basically it's a different bezel and they call it a new range? Oh well, got my 1st hat today and "The Book."

I like the Galactic 41 but it could have been better if it was slightly bigger. I dont like the rest of the watch line. |

But my question is - isn't this the Cockpit with a different bezel. Same case, essentially same dial, same size. The Chrono Galactic even has identical dials to the Chrono cockpit. |
