The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Just received this very inexpensive watch and am really digging it. Will post pics later - in a rush. Heavy 45 MM brushed case, unidirectional minutes bezel, bi-directional inner hour bezel, day at 6, date at 3(cyclops), silver guilloche dial with blue arabics. Pretty nice polished/brushed bracelet with good clasp and micro extension. Very easy to size bracelet with long screws. ETA 2824 with exhibition back.

Dial is a bit frilly, perhaps frivolous, but that's why I bought it - it's different. Same watch comes in a standard black dial.

I paid less than $500 shipped on their website.

Will post pics later.

Interesting dial pattern. What's that at the 10 o'clock?

The screw down crown for the bidirectional inner hour bezel.

"Interesting" is a polite way to say "goofy," and I know - it is a goofy looking watch. But there is something about it I like. Maybe that says a a bundle about me.

Yeah.... Sharky... it's, uh, "interesting"...

Blue, green, black & red??? All it's missing is purple....

Awww come on - it's WHIMSICAL.

Don't think I'll be buying out their product line though.

Can't take ourselves too seriously. What's life without a little goofyness??

I like the guilloche

Pretty neat.

But do guilloche and "Commando" even go together?

That's a good point, but it is a Commander with baby blue accents

Sorry Sharkman, looks like a lot of watch for the money, just an 'interesting' design.

I outgrew Spiderman watches a long time ago

You mean a REAL AirCommando wouldn't wear this watch?? Good God, what have I done?

Fellas! - every so often i have to go to a disco theme party. It's perfect! Can be worn with green, blue, or metalic silver liesure suits.

I'm surpirsed such a fine group of cultured men could not see the obvious worth of this $450 watch.


(also looked smashing last night with nothing but those boxer shorts)

I think it's a good deal for that price.

In that price range I like the Cave Dweller better. Or some of the Steinhart pieces.

Well it's well made and they have a blcak version of the same watch. Not so frilly. Remeber the dial is not quit as over the top when not under a macro lense. I have the cave dweller and like it but this watch -in black or "Rainbow Coalition" has more features. I would say the Xezo is abetter made watch. Check out the black dial online.
