The Breitling Watch Source Forums

It was the end of 2010 and ETA finally stop delivering blank movement to Breitling and other watchmaker companies,
and I also read this interview (http://www.askmen.com/fashion/trends_60 ... rview.html) with Breitling marketing director, Ben Balmer, he stated that Breitling still has a reserve of ETA components and will be able to use them for several more years.

So does that mean Breitling will continue to develop new in-house movement like the B01 or look for another supplier when they finally run out of ETA components. Since not every Breitling watches are chronograph, would it be possible for them to produce another in-house movement for the non-chronograph? because I would love to have one

any info would be appreciated

Thank you.

They will continue to move to a larger percentage of in house movements, and I am sure that we will see non chrono soon - possibly in March (Basel). ETA movement designs can also be supplied by third party manufacturers or be produced by Breitling as they are a long way out of copyright protection.

I cant wait to see what they have in store for us...
