The Breitling Watch Source Forums

thanks i really like it... i took this testing the iphone 4 camera, very good detail



worst combination for me, hate it, i believe it ruins completly the blackbird theme

the name says it all black...bird so it should be black dial no matter what, also the blackbird is a matte looking plane, so the matte black dial and brushed finish is the only one that works for me and for the hole blackbird idea

if you want a blue watch go get a chronomat evo that is my opinion

thanks man!!
thanks to you i found my grail watch!
its the best looking watch breitling ever made!!
the way that the blue color strikes acording to the light is amazing.
thanks again for sharing and keep this pictures comming...

I'm not why you and a lot of other people get stuck on the "name". I like the Blackeye Blue because it looks nice and to hell with feeling like is HAS to be brushed black because the plane is flat black. To me that is stupid logic.

for me and for many besides the plane name, black looks far more better than blue in a watch
i hate blue dial watches, prefer black or white dials, and this particular one is ugly in blue...my opinion... hate the black subdials whit the rest blue, this should be called crosswind special bird, black subdials bird or something like that,if you want a blue watch you have many others like chronomat evo and others
but if you like it buy it and dont mind my stupid and ilogical opinion

black or blue its a breitling anyways

Don't worry, I dont mind your stupid opinion. Everyone is allowed to be wrong occasionally.

i have to agree here.
thats all metter of taste but after all..they are all breitlings
i really liked the contrast at the black eye blue at the blackbird.looks amazing and hard to find.
probably it will be my next watch.

that blue is too...blue! imo it's harder to sell a blue dial than a black or white.

I am really digging the BB and was thinking that the BEB is a pretty sharp look.

That being said....what are your thoughts on the brushed/polished BEB version?

Is the bracelet all polished/ brushed, or it is mixed.

Also, wasnt there a recent thread where someone took a polished BB and had the bezel brushed? that may be a best of both worlds.

That's not true. Toro would buy the Black Eye Blue Bird in an instant.
