Yesterday we've seen the new BlackSteel models, today the SO and the Bentley SuperSports. Does it mean until Basel we're gonna have one or two new Breitling models leaked every day? I'd love that! :twisted:

That new SO has caught my eye. I've been thinking about getting a new diver on bracelet... this could be a contender if it will be available on a Pro 2.

I like the clean design, absence of rider tabs on the bezel, etc. Not so sure about the fonts, but I will reserve judgment on that until I see more pics.

The super avenger BS retails for $5700 while the standard retails for $4550. So about a $1200 premium. However comparing apples to apples the super avenger with diver pro retails for $4160 so in actuality the premium is more like $1540. Using this same logic I would put the BBBS around $7100 or so..Ouch!

At first glance, that SO looks a lot more like a sub to me(minus the yellow rehaut and arabics). Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Good thing IMO. I'll probably be in the minority on that though.

I'm actually digging the midnight Bentley. Is it on bracelet? If Breitling can midnight-coat a Bentley bracelet, why not "midnight-coat" a full pro2 SA??

It's supposed to be caliber 26 from what I have been told (technically 26B I guess) which means that it has the chrono minute totaliser in the middle (same as Navitimer 125th).

@chmre Basel opens March 18th and runs for just over a week.
