Such a shame they market that as a women's watch!


Totally agree. It looks perfect on Novacastrian's wrist.
I wonder how many more they would have sold if it was marketed as for both sexes.


Absolutely; that looks terrific.

I had the pleasure of visting the boutique today & I can't say enough about how great the staff were. I was planning a Yachtmaster as my next watch but I'm pretty much sold on a two tone Chronomat after today. Well worth the visit.

I managed to make it in a little while ago whilst on a trip to Sydney. It was such a pleasure to be served by Jonathan. He has such a passion for watches, and is knowledgeable about a wide range of brands as he's worked in watch stores for a long time in Europe. He was genuinely interested in talking about the watches with me and helping me try on half the shop, and wasn't just pushing a sale. Made very an extremely enjoyable and relaxed visit. The crowning jewel was finally finding a local AD attendant who knew about BS and browses it.

I'd recommend a trip to the Sydney Boutique, and finding Jonathan to help you. He also seemed very keen in helping us set up a Sydney meetup and Boutique night for later in the year, which hopefully will go ahead :-)

With enough notice I'd love to come down. Jonathan also served me the day I was there. He was fantastic to deal with & he followed up on my queries via email within hours of leaving the store. Interestingly out of all the watch stores I have visited the two best salespeople I have met were Jonathan in Sydney & a lady at the Breitling boutique in NYC.

I didn't even know a Breitling boutique existed until I came across this thread a few months back!

nice one.

Jonathon also served me when I went into the Sydney boutique. I really wanted to get the Patrouille Suisse but wanted to see the model in person before pulling the trigger. Jonathon really took his time explaining the Breitling gift system and I was really impressed with his level of knowledge. Not once did he try to push a sale on me.

I was also there because I wanted to acquire a calf strap for my Aerospace Evo and Jonathon explained the pros and cons of each type of strap and which strap looks best with which model. I'm a real Breitling fanboy so it was really exciting meeting someone with such passion for the luxury watch industry. I'm a flight attendant and was about to fly out in a few hours so Jonathon fixed me up with a quick expresso before I left the store. How's that for service!

I've also been served by David too who I believe is one of their watchmakers. David took his time explaining the up and coming breitling releases and his level of knowledge of the watch market is incredible!
