Wow, I didn't like it when the dial looked normal! WTF is that?

This is becoming the most dysfunctional product line I have seen in a while. How many different bezel styles and arabic styles can there be under one roof? Apparently unlimited. It's self-inflicted identity theft. Some of the new watches look nice but who would identify them as a Breitling. No wonder the winged B logo is getting larger on the dial--it may become the only way you can tell.

WTF is this.

The "old" design is soooooooooo much nicer that this one looks like and absolute joke, which I hope it is.

Al, exactly my first reaction.
Would have sworn this is a rebranded frankenTAG and a prime candidate for our replica section.

Not a good look. Is someone at Breitling trying to sabotage the brand!?

I agree. it is very 90s Tag. Having said that, i prefer it to the new SO series. No hideous rubber.

The quartered dial design really does elevate it from hideous to a whole new level. Yet another exceptional job by the Breitling design team. :roll:
