Hi Guys

Again, not sure how many of you know about these forthcoming dials.

Sorry if it's old news, there is a BEB SO Heritage coming too.

Very cool Davey !
I've been waiting for a different contrast dial version of the BB.
If they ever come out with a black dialed BB with silver subs in the brushed version, that would be perfect in my eyes.

First pictures I've seen, and they do look nice - that black / blue combo is really striking.

I like it best on the Skyracer. Not a huge fan of pairing black and blue, but I think it works best using that particular shade of blue.

Me too. I think the Skyracer looks really great. :thumbsup:

I'm not too sure about the other two though, especially the BB - I think the standard all black model just looks cleaner, and more in keeping with the whole Blackbird "thing".

I guess that it's a tip of the hat to the original bluebird, but it does seem like an odd choice.

I think it's ok on the ocean racer, but lacking compared to the BB when on steel. They have many other watches with blue dials so the bb should stay black! (bad decision)

Hate to disagree :guns: but the blackbird looks better in blue then in black - to me. I also like it better on a black strap then on steel (in this blue version) but think black leather would look better/more sophisticated then black rubber. Any idea what this model # is?

Ill agree with you guys when it comes to skyracer taking the lead amongst BEB's

However, the BB seems to be speaking to me.....im going to start saving with immediate effect !! I just wish I can find dark blue croco with black stitching for it :wowzers

Great pictures Davey. Love the skyracer the most along with just about everyone else :wink:

However I actually don't mind them all. Can't wait to see them in person. Thanks for demonstrating.

I do like the BB in the BEB.
See link for the B01 and Chronomat in the BEB.

Totally agree. The Skyracer is the only one I like. As for the BB, I'm a bit sad about it. Maybe I'm just being silly, but I bought my BB feeling like it was "the" Blackbird, but now there's another colour option it's "a" Blackbird.

Actually, that does look silly now it's written down.
