That looks a little odd. Hopefully the real thing looks better than the renderings. The blue sky and blue with the white subs that were previously released look much better.

GBP7,190 on bracelet. That's funnier than the fact that someone thought this looked good. Breitling have been doing pretty well this Basel season, but this thing is truly hideous.

I think they should have just left the Navitimers alone with the recent 46mm/48mm introductions.

I know the saying "Black and blue will never do", but I actually really quite like the combo! :shock: :oops:

Would have to see it in person to be sure, of course.

I love it. It's nice to see a Navi with a different color on the outer ring -- great to see a fresh approach there. And, the "blue-eyed black" combo is different, and very cool. My suspicion is that this one will look great, live and in person. Guess we'll have to see. :wink:

I'm tired of these Invicta homages.

When you homage an Invicta, do two kittens die?

I am not against the black/blue combo but not on a Nav. This just does not do it for me.
Not bad but just not my taste.

Breitling have a bad habit of producing renderings that look terrible compared to the real thing so I'll hold judgement until I see it in the flesh.

I'm willing to bet it looks better in the flesh, although that shot is really not helping my theory.
