Oh my. . . .  I wonder how much of a premium we pay for the honor of owning such a peice? |

I've always used to like the Reno LE's. The Airwolfs they made a few years back looked great, and the watch itself was in keeping with aeroplanes. Then they made a SuperOCEAN Heritage version which had absolutely nothing to do with flying at all........ and now this second SuperOCEAN! And a raspberry rubber bezel no less. I've been hoping for a Reno B01 Navitimer, or even a Reno Chronomat 01. Either of those would've been great. Oh well (and as the now regular mantra goes when it comes to Breitling these days), there's always next year.....

Realistic sales expectations at least - only producing 50 of them. Nothing says air races quite like a raspberry red dive maritime watch. But let's be fair, they've only been associated with aviation for close to a hundred years so they probably couldn't think of anything more appropriate from their catalogue

Don't belch if you see a bright yellow bezel in the future. Not a prediction, but nothing is too outlandish or unlikely today. |

the chronomat 49 was a good one, and it was cheaper than the non reno for some reason |

There are so many nice aviation related Breitlings, why a diver with a red bezel? It boggles the mind...  I really like the Airwolf, and agree the Navi or Chronomat would be a good choice.

As has been said a raspberry divers watch for an air show? Even with horrendous models of the past few years I never dreamed Brietling would do something this bizarre. Cheers. |

I just don't understand why they don't go with a ceramic bezel like Rolex and now Omega, and add some lume? Add an in-house movement and you've got yourself a great watch! (ref Omega POC 9300  )
