Wow, talk about falling between two stools. Was this an official model? If so, Breitling seriously lost the plot.

Yes perhaps one of the most bizarre Diamondworks pieces EVER.... and let's be honest it's up against some stiff competition in that regard! A fusion of probably the most professional and functional tool watch that Breitling have ever made, with a level of completely over-the-top bling that even Liberace would've steered clear of.

It's a total head-scratcher of an idea IMO, but yes, it's genuine.
