Does Breitling offer the watch with a matching rose gold bracelet?

On full gold it could very easily look yes much so over the top and overstated. But as is, on leather, it looks understated and very very classy. . . . On good for a rap video though. . . :lol:

:yeahthat Solid gold Breitlings (and most other, if not all, solid gold watches for that matter) look hideous on the full gold bracelet IMO. They look so OTT, and just scream, "look at me with all my money". But a gold watch on a nice understated croco strap can look very classy.

I decided to wear it to work today, get some wrist time, make sure i love it before i pay for it, and the gold subs are growing on me, its, and the more i look at the turned bezel as opposed to the knurled, them more i like it, it seems a little more, whats the word here..... refined or understated. when i get the camel strap thats the same color as the subs, it will tie it all in nicely i think.

wears great, not a heavy as i thought, its a little heavier, but not noticeable on the wrist

next day wrist shot at work!

I really think that this bezel does look a whole lot better than the knurled bezel. The knurled bezel just seems kinda "blingy" to me, and that's not really necessary with a solid gold B4B in my opinion. Looks great on you, congrats again.

:yeahthat I agree with roman....that bezel is a nicer looking bezel. That camel strap is going to really look sharp on that piece I think. Grats again on that nice pick up!! Looks good on your "Gorilla Arms"!! :lol: :lingsrock:

That's the great thing about the motors T -- less blingy because of the bezel and the satin finish, which by the way is very nicely done. The grain is every fine and uniform. The only down side to the engine turned bezel compared the knurled bezel is that once you get a swirly or scratch on it, it's impossible to buff out without ruining the finish.

I don't wear mine to often either due to the size and I don't want to be too showy at work. After 2 years it still looks brand new. Although I got the smallest swirly on the bezel that I'm dying to get out. It's just not going to happen. I'm hoping during the service Breitling will get it out.

I just bought the new Navitimer B01 as my daily wearer work watch. It's more low key then my bentley.
