Unitime: nice, but preferred the teaser pic, a little to colorful for my tastes. others are JAWs |

I think that the Unitime would look better withut the chrono, but a nice piece. The other two are nice, but with 19 / 29 inside I presume, so nothing particularly new. Assuming that the Unitime is in house. And the Emergency is still 12 months away. Edit, I see that the Unitime is in house, but Caliber 05 - presumably because of different 24 hour display than the 04. |

Oh jeez.  The teaser pic for the TO Unitime was great because it didn't show that bl**dy hideous globe painted on the dial! That just doesn't work for me AT ALL. It ruins a superb prospect. Such as shame because everything else about it works a treat for me.  The TO 1461 looks beautiful, and if it was in-house it'd be a must-have IMO, but as it's "just" another B19 powered piece, then I'll pass thanks. Same goes for the QP, but with an even more insane price tag. Nothing I'm loving yet this year...... as usual. |

Dang, that same Unitime without the globe would have me drooling, and it would represent a real design + function push by Breitling. The globe looks even worse on the black dial model. Aaaaaahhhhhh. So close and they effed up...AGAIN. |

Really like the 1461, but the price...I'm out. |

And the fact remains that while Breitling seems to be trying with the TOs, they still will not give that watch a proper bracelet. My AD has told me several times, the current TOs are a hard sell once people see the mesh bracelet. Breitling buyers tend to want and expect a true bracelet and strap option. Until Breitling breaks down and offers a real bracelet, the TOs will continue to suffer. |

I see it live in the flesh. I think the Ivory dial has possibilities. Does anyone know what the price is on either the QP or the Unitime? I figure they both have to be in excess of 12K USD. The rest of the 2012 lineup is horrible, IMO. |

I love the TO 1461. If it had an in-house; it would be a must have for me. I'll wait for the in-house version, I can't afford both. If I could, I would buy it and sell it later for the in-house. The 1461, and the new blackbird are all ling has left for me to love right now. I will say, things are looking a lot better this year than they have in recent history. |
