It bugged me when I picked up pure breitling to see there was no b01 inside and made me wonder if BSA were gonna really bug me by putting the in house movement watches in a separate book. You know kind of like here is our premium and he is the rest.

Well at biggin I had an opportunity to catch up with franz, Chris and Phil. Franz confirmed all models will be integrated for next years releases.

That cheered me up.

Then I asked about a in house navi and more movements and while I wasn't given. Straight ans I was getting the feeling there might be 2 or 3 versions released next year and something in the navi range.

I also suggested the do leather and croco ends for the ocean racer which was met with a knowing smile

All in all this left me excited for Basel next year and I thought I'd share my interpretation on sone non ans questions and some ans ones

Maybe I'm just being a bit dim, but what does this mean?

So I take it the Bentley models will be in the '11 book then as well? When I bought my Motors a couple weeks back I was given the "full" catalog and was disappointed that the Bentley models were nowhere to be found in it.

No part if the bentley deal is they get their own book

What do you mean what does this mean? My opinion is that there will be leather and croco made to fit the ocean racer clasp in the future

Well let's hope that's true - it's about time that we got some good news, and regardless of whether you like the new bezel or not we expect more from Breitling than just cosmetic changes each year. Looks like next year will actually see some exciting developments.

I was also told they do a lot of Market research more about price and placement than design and they know where they wanna be design wise and as such I think that bezel is the future at least for now.
