I’ve owned several Breitlings over the years. The best thing about Breitling, is that a Breitling looks like a Breitling. They have their own design ascetic. There was a time when they made a bunch of ugly watches, but he quality, didn’t suffer. As I mentioned before, I’ve owned many over the years and never saw an issue with quality.

Under George's Kern Breitling have spent 5 years, reassessing everything. The model line up is now tremendous, the quality too. The Duograph is well, a masterstroke, as is the new Chronomat and Navitimer. I think they offer the best bang for buck in the market right now. Forget resale, buying watches is an emotional choice and you get lots from the B!

This is precisely why I bought a B09 Premier; the pistachio green dial with the needle hands coupled with the manual wind and 40mm case size is a classic throw back, truly exemplifying the heritage of the brand. Together with the excellent engineering behind the chronograph movement inside (column wheel, vertical clutch, 70hr power reserve), it’s a true modern classic. I think the new management behind Breitling is definitely en pointe with their new product lines, just have to get the marketing right behind it now, and all the best to their endeavours on that end. I hope they succeed and gain the attention they deserve amongst watch enthusiasts

I don’t think that more sizes is a good way to go if wanting to grow your customer base. Min is probably 36 and max should be up to 46/7 anything else causes these problems 1. Dealers would require more stock and parts 2. Service agents more training 3. Sales problems could cause me returns to manufacturers What perhaps they should do is more custom design work …. Especially dial backgrounds and or make special commemorative lines for watch collectors ( which have a higher price range. Surprisingly these often sell better at a price point than you might think) then they will have some breathing room.

Love Breitling. My wife and I each got a Superocean II, 4 years ago and love them. I wanted to get a watch from the Premier line, but wanted a screw down crown with the water resistance. I was looking for an Explorer type watch. Ended up getting an Aqua Terra (w/rubber strap), which has been great so far, but would have preferred a Breitling. Before Breitling, I had owned 3 Datejusts, but I definitely won’t buy a Rolex now.

A really epic watch and the other is a 2018 Emergency II titanium black with the mother pearl blue dial. I really love both watches. Both watches are so different from anything any other brand has to offer. I am a real fan of Breitling when it comes to quality and design.

I first bought a Breitling in December 1999, the Blackbird on a rubber strap. Stunning watch which I kept for over 8 years. More recently they have stagnated until they were bought out by CVC Partners who have no doubt been kicking arse and getting stuff sorted out. Now Breitling is back at the races with a number of decent watches at quite good price points. They are available too. Something Rolex seems to fail to grasp.

Breitling make very solid built watches, all chronometers COSC, and generally wear smaller than the dimensions dictate. I have an older Automatic Colt41 and it’s been rock solid, super accurate for a mechanical watch, and I know when time for servicing comes it won’t kill me as it’s a ETA. Although I have many more expensive watches, my Breitling is near to my heart. Also they can be had 2nd market or grey at 20 to 30% msrp representing tremendous value.

Softer watch material easier clean or harder material not as easy to fix. However it has spent the rest of time

You know it’s a Breitling because of that unique and iconic steel bezel and rider tabs. One thing about Breitling is that it has a unique look and identity. A Breitling is a Breitling. I have an avenger 43mm blue face dial myself and use it frequently as a daily wear. I switch between its iconic slant link steel bracelet and an after market handmade leather strap. As a Soldier, it reminds me a lot of my military service and the heritage and history the brand has with service members all over the world. Highly recommend Breitling to those who want a brand with rich history like Rolex, Tag Heuer, and Omega but a fair price point.

I own a few breitlings , my last one is the 2022 navitimer and I love it . I never by a watch thinking on selling them. I buy watches because I like them. I own few Rolex and I can’t remember the last time I wear any of them .

I've looked wistfully at a pilot's navitimer, but close-up picture reveals workmanship and precision that have fallen behind my Swiss microbrand, my 10-second-per-year Bulovas, even one of my knock-around spec-monster homage chronos. The other problem is all the chats I've seen where Breitling owners are discussing the ones that broke, were sent back for regulating...I want a watch that works without complaint for at least a decade. I don't want to baby-sit a whiny royal, if you get my point.

I want a pink dial watch for everyday. I’ve been on the waitlist with Rolex for years. If I buy the Breitling what kind of loss am I looking at for resale? 50%?

Anyone seeking a smaller Navitimer should look at the newer 41mm versions. Valjoux 7750 based, but the perfect size, beautifully executed, and chronometer spec as expected.

How many Breitlings do you own by curiosity ? I own 6 older Breitling Chronomats from years 2014-2019 , 3 with B01 and 3 with B04 from the Schneider era which bests out many creations made under Kern . The old chronomat B01from years 2009-2018 with the winged logo has screw down crown pushers and was 500m , now the water resistance on a chrononomat is just 200m , the transocean , the chronoliner and the navitimer rattrapante, navitimer GMT have been phased out, let's not forget the Breitling for Bentley models which were more impressive than what is produced nwoadays

Breitling makes amazing watches, but you won’t see them hyped by the same people who hype a ROO.

Like Breitling especially avenger sea wolf and super ocean. Tough rugged with captive bezel better than Rolex / omega.

I own a Bently GT. Bought it when I was 21. It's a great looking watch. Just disappointed that they used an off the shelf ETA 7750. Now the new Breitling premier in blue is breathtaking. Wish I could flip mine for it.

What are your thoughts on the Navitimer Automatic 41? I am in Canada and it will cost around $7K. Is the watch worth that kind of money? How's the quality? Is it wrong to ask if there is a discount on the watches? I am going to deal with their head office store. They are giving me the leather and stainless steel straps in the price. Thanks.

Bought my first back 87 a Chronomat manual with a leather bracelet, was not those with gold or yellow on the three tome counting. I and everybody else loved the watch. Actually was not well known in America, first time I saw one was in ST Tropes when a friend bought one and showed me. Was the most beautiful watch I ever lay my eyes on, made some money in a job at N York and bought my own. Went back home to L A and felt like a king driving my convertible little bit up Alfa Spider. Came my birthday my girl present also a Breitling that few people know, an Erick Tabarly a French sailor . Bought my third a Colt for diving and wear , also nice watch. People say what they want, now all still running great and I love the brand. Will take one over an Omega anytime, Rolex go to hell

Breitling's are great, I wonder if they are really going in the right direction... Other brands can make way more beautiful and elegant watches, Breitling's shouldn't focus too much on this... They should keep at least a part of their aviation history, THAT is what makes the brand a classic ! They've been stopping all their aviation sponsors in recent years, too bad !

If Breitling's design team watched this video, it would be cool to take the SuperOcean at 2:46 with the rainbow markings shown in this video, and add jewels for the color ala the Rainbow Daytona.

I think the "ugly" Breitling era is kind of coming into its own. They are distinctive and as long as you don't get something too big are kind of a unique, recognizable, timepiece of tremendous quality and value.

I was bought a genuine Breitling for a significant birthday present. I sent it to a professional company to have the battery changed and the watch checked and re-sealed. Just over twelve months later the watch stops. I don't care how good the watch is supposed to be, it should not cost nearly £200 per year to keep the damned thing running. So it sits in a drawer, with certificate, in it's box.
