My $.02 is that the appearance in the pics really seem to depend on the particular watch. Some look very piece-mealed, with multiple colors, finishes, and styles, like the Roman numerals and the outer numbered bezel together. But others looks VERY sharp and clean, and I'd love to own them!

Some will be pleasantly surprised how nice it looks in the metal. I was.

Looks even more like a fashion watch now I've seen real pics! Can't help but feel Breitling has - :nutkick:

The movement looks/sounds great though!

I am verry disappointed about the B01. I don´t like the watch. I hope that Breitling create a watch that appreciate the B01.

Jay, I agree, they're the best pics I've seen of it. But as I've said elsewhere, it just doesn't look to me like a design that will stand the test of time. I wouldn't hesitate to buy a G-Shock with font cues like that, but a $5k+ watch...?

Like the bezel font, absolutely hate the Roman numerals.

The Romans is the only thing that brings it up a level IMO. The bezel is what kills it for me.

If this were a Colt.. i'd think it was cool. For a Chronomat.. no thanks.
