Does the clasp have holes for micro adjustments or are they hidden like on the Bentley clasps?

I think so, but not 100% - others will delight in correcting me if I am wrong, and I assume that it is a weight issue alone.


That would have been a nice way to cut down some of the weight. I wish the new avenger 2 was offered entirely in Ti.

Does anyone know if the new ProIII bracelet is flatter? By that I mean flatter on the wrist as opposed to width. In some pics it looks the same, but in one pic it definitely looks thinner.

Thanks for taking the time to post the pics, by the way! It's great to see these watches we've all been speculating upon.

Cheers guys.

Very entertaining, I definately like the pro2 band better this new pro3 looks like a Rolex band. That's just my personal opinion, the rest of its nice but I already own 6 of them and don't see anything worth buying a new model not much different to me.

You're welcome. Big thanks to Mr. Mazda for the detailed pics!

I encourage each and every one of you to visit your local dealer and check out these new models for yourselves.

Yeah, I had heard Ti, hence my original statement on the subject, but have a tough time believing it based on those pics that nixmazda posted. The Breitling website (which apparently is accurate after all) makes no mention of it, just refers to a steel case.

Clearly the caseback is not TI. :roll: Breitling website is wrong. Watch is larger than 48mm and clasp is also larger than 20mm..

roff, do you ever visit AD's or boutiques? I suggest you take a look at this watch in person. It's quite clear you have not... You know, try it on and all that...
