The "My Breitling Made to Measure" function is now working for the new Colts on Breitling's website.
Looks like Colt auto is $3525 on bracelet in the US.

I was just on the website as well, after a long time away. This Colt model, along with the Colt Quartz (my preference), are really smart moves for Breitling IMO. The older case designs are well reflected in these models. I like that they are both only 11.25mm thick. The 200M Water Resistance permits full diver watch designation, while allowing for a relatively thin watch. Originally designed as a military watch, this sturdy Colt has really got me interested in owning a Breitling once again. My first Breitling, purchased in the late 70s, was a Colt Quartz, which I had for over 10 years.

Cheers,
Carl

So, after ten years, welcome back, nothing much has changed other than the price tag ;-)

It's a shame that compared to the last-but-one Colt design, up to 2011, Breitling oversized it for no reason and reduced the WR by 60%. The bracelet is a lot thinner, too, and yet it's roughly double the price of the 2011 Colt.
