Is the DLC type coating process used on all black steel Breitlings? (I realize there are some ceramic and Breitlight "blacks"). I ask because looking now at Colt Chronograph M133881ABE99, a limited edition, Automatic Colt Chronograph, stainless, black. I have never seen it described as DLC, only as "black stainless" or blacksteel in descriptions of sellers on this model.

Other Breitlings I have looked at on their website for example Aviator-8, the DLC coating on the stainless is specifically called out.

Yes all "Blacksteel" models are DLC coated steel.

The only DLC coating watch i have is a Breitling Maritime Chronographe and the DLC looks very qualitative after few years no issues.
