I went to a Breitling event the other night and was curious to see the new SOs in person. I got to play around a while with all the available rehaut colors but to me I thought the rubber on the bezel had a greenish tint to it, making most rehaut colors a weird "match". It might just have been unflattering lighting in the location, but how do you experience it? As black, matte black or with that greenish tint?

Also, I was very surprised with the DPII rubber - it almost felt flimsy compared to an OR or the old DP. However, on the wrist it felt quite nice.

I see it as matte black; no green whatsoever. Its almost identical in color to the diver pro II rubber. The DPII is definitely a softer texture. I love how buttery smooth and pliable it is.

It took me about 10 minutes to realize he was talking about the mailman. :oops: I was thinking " What the hell happened to Karl Malone?"
Anyway, great watch. This is definitely on my short list. Love the yellow.
