I wouldn't buy it with the diamond bezel, but every time I see one of these blue MOP dials I think I have to add one - awesome look - http://www.pduggan.com/cart/proddetail.php?prod=19099

I believe that is technically black MOP not blue (although it just happens to look blue :? )

I like it (even with the diamonds :shock: ), but I've always fractionally preferred the Japanese version which is identical, apart from having black subdials instead of silver. You don't see many around.

I think it's Blue and was new this year. Authentic watches has had one with and without diamonds for awhile now.

I just noticed the very subtle target that is on the dial. Very cool and a great looking watch.

Oops, I stand corrected! :oops: I thought it was the older black MOP version.

This was a limited edition for '06. Breitling made 300 total for US market. 250 steel with plain bezel, 50 with diamond bezel. They were numbered separetly. AKA not xxx/300 but xxx/250 and xx/50. They are pretty much sold out but I think there are a few out there at AD's. We sold the last one in the beginning of this year but when I had a customer acquire about it, my Breitling rep said he could find me one if the guy was serious.

And yes, it was technically called 'Black MOP'. Its like judging black and white pearls. There are ALL kinds of shades for the black pearls, but even if they look grey, green, blue, etc, they are still categorized as black.
