Not me. Going from photos alone, it doesnt beckon me and I dont feel drawn toward it. My AD will get one in no doubt, and Ill see it in the flesh soon enough I suppose...who knows, I may fall in love with it yet. Its certainly the only new model that I'm remotely interested in at present.
Im currently being pulled by a stronger force....a display back Breitling. Dont know when or what exact model, but at this stage of my Breitling experience, having a display back model in my collection would please me more.

Yeah what he said, would rather get another Chronomat right now in the Breitling area. Maybe a MOP dial for a change.

Me either.

Having tried it on I was really disappointed. The dial was really hard to read, though that may be a problem with the blue dial that doesn't exist with the others.

The bezel was way too wide for the watch, looked completely out of balance, and while the bracelet is obviously the only way to go the bracelet narrows very quickly, and just didn't look right.

First Bentley will still be the Grey Violet Motors for me.
