As expected, with so many models being discontinued, the latest catalog proposed by Breitling is paper thin.

Image

It contains just 76 pages against the 192 of the one that it's replacing. And this time, it includes the Bentley models as well.

Their excuse is that this catalog contains mostly the novelties. They expect to publish a full updated catalog by October only :shock:

There is just one pic of the new models and all possible variations (dials, straps etc.) are described in text only.

Not what I was expecting from Breitling. Just one more disappointment. :(

The Runway catalogue is always thin as it only contains the new stuff. I'm sure the full catalogue will be it's usual size.

76 pages is the largest Runway that I can recall.

As I said, it includes Bentley's models (12 pages) as well which I do not recall the former did.

And it also includes "old" stuff as well like the Navi, B01, SO, SO Heritage, Avenger.

Can't wait to add it to my collection. I have every catalog from 1994 to present. Still looking for previous years (any tips please PM me). When will Breitlingsource get a snapshot up on the catalogs/books page of the "Pure Breitling" cover? If a scan is needed I can certainly provide one.
