Yes it is fun. And all you wrote is true. Watches are my hobby and a passionate one at that. Every now and then I have to smack myself and remember "it's just a watch."

When I sold a couple recently you would have thought I was giving a child up for adoption. And in the perfect timing department, the oven timer just went off so it's time to set out the Chicken Florentine for my real child and me - just back from her freshman year of college.

It's made and designed by Breitling so why will it never be a Breitling? You don't like diversity? I don't care for quite a few of their watches but still feel they fit in their lineup.

maybe you're just not cool enough to wear one :poke: :lol:

Well, except Chronomats (Ok maybe the Antares and the Avenger as well), do you like any other Breitling models electrosound?

I'm asking you that, because I know you have an eye against the B01, now it's the "for Bentley" range :poke: :)

:yeahthat Totally agree with mr.clean on this one :guns:

If Breitling made it then it's a :lingsrock:

Logically, you cannot say that it's not :wink:

i love Breitiling but i am not a fanatic like you (probably) that everything Breitling make you like.. ( it seems that..)...
i have also a cosmonaute, and i'm buying the new chronospace soon... i like almost all models of Breitling but NOT for bentley and NOT B01, do you understand now?

i don't agree that everything Breitling make it's great, and like me i assume there many others people...

sorry again if i say i hate the B01 bezel and so i don't like your beloved..



p.s: and yes, i love chronomat (the 1984-2004 line up), so what? i told you sometime ago and i told you again: enjoy your B01 and also respect people that don't like it.

and i'm following Breitiling since 1990..

No offense 8) but you have been a little aggressive against what you do not like and others may do. :wink:

You can say what you like (or not) of course but why a B01 or a "for Breitling" will they never be a Breitling if they're made by :breitling3. I simply don't get it. :?

What this thread and similar ones (Baselworld, new superocean, etc..) makes clear is (1) not everything is for everyone and (2) Breitling's lineup is diverse enough to appeal to a large audience.
