Polished case and brushed bracelet again.. Ughhh. No thanks

I agree that it looks really great! I think that it would have been nice if it was all brushed to distinguish it a bit more from the other offerings. But overall, I really like it.

Blue dial on a blue diver pro III please!

Pretty neat. Sunken sub dials are in the right direction I think. I like this a lot too. I hope it's a real winner for Breitling.

I like it as well. Especially white dial/black subs on a blue rubber strap - after playing a bit with it on the official website.

I'm another that just loves this watch. It reminds me of the 'good old days' when I liked just about everything in the Breitling range. Love the bezel, it looks good on the strap and bracelet. I think it's a nicely balanced watch with a busy dial (another plus for me). I'd happily own this watch.

Hardest part of this timepiece is figuring out the right combo strap and face color. Love the Mariner Blue, but the Pro 3 rubber strap in blue has to much contrast. It's much more of a light grayish blue vs the vibrant blue face color on the avenger series.

I really like this one. Put it on rubber and its a perfect everyday beater. Would love to see it side by side with an avenger

You have a very good point there.
There more I look at the two the more I tend to lean towards the Avenger.
I like the Avenger push buttons and crown better.
I also like the the polished bracelet matching the case. Yes, I love hilly polished, the more of it the better. One of the reasons why I love Breitling.
Only one brushed exception that I do like and that is the Chronomat 01 LE.
having said all that I found the Avenger a bit too thick at 16 plus mm so the 14 plus Colt might just do it.

Great watch!! Pure Breitling!
Love the black dial with white subdials

Agree, like the all black (black subdials) stick Avenger dial design, crown and pushers, but the case thickness and weight is just a little too much for me. This Colt size and thickness may be just right.

I've never been a fan of the Colt line, but if I was going to choose one it would be this model. It's just done well and I like it. Nuff said.

Fantastic looking watch. I can't believe it's a Colt! The only thing I would change is getting rid of all the text save the Breitling Logo and Colt title. They are finally making some practical improvements to the bezel as well. A nice blend of old and new, with none of the snagging.
