An Excellent Breitling Chronograph That You Need to Know About - Premier B09 Review

[@walkerb1734]

I have never been a Breitling fan. In fact, I would go so far as to say I hated the Brand. This is one piece from Breitling I would buy. They go everything right about it….perfect size, interesting color, great movement, and a nice balance between subtle and showy. Home run here!

[@maxespe845]

This is exactly what I think about the brand and this particular watch 😂👍

[@_RJ_Z]

Same!

[@SonOvaSon]

The new Chronomat GMT has me 🥵

[@raingodmusic]

Same and the datora with moonphase

[@ams914]

Well you shouldn't hate them, because they have some of the best executed dials/cases in the game, IMHO. Also true for IWC.

[@sananselmospacescienceodys7308]

A few days ago I saw one of these "in person" in a shop in San Francisco. It was stunning. Photos and videos don't do it justice. It's a real piece of kinetic art.

[@johnroberts2290]

Not a big chronograph lover but I would buy this watch in a heartbeat if I had the money. That green is mesmerising to me. Love the channel.

[@mottystone3547]

Exact same comment. I'm not a Breitling guy. Not a chronograph guy. But that is a gorgeous dial.

[@Aaron-dt9pu]

Yep I'm 100% with you here. Think chronographs are too busy but that green dial is something else

[@johnroberts2290]

Wonder if they make a three hander in this colour 💚

[@Coempi73]

Same here!

[@ParticleYT]

Breitling has really gotten back to the high status brand they used to be 😊

[@robertschmidt9584]

Still a long way to go! But going in a good direction.

[@MrAhuraMazda]

They were never not a high status brand

[@jfinn3575]

What absolute garbage. They 'used' to be mediocre with valjoux movement, then finally made their own B01 and peaked about 2016 before they were sold to a hedge fund who has been cutting corners ever since. Have you seen the new models released since the takeover? They are all significantly 'cheaper' in every single respect, apart from price, which is £1000 more now.

[@PeteNice29]

@@jfinn3575 I think for awhile they needed to jump start revenue, and sadly cost cutting is part of that. But if this piece is any indication, that trend is reversing.

[@danielrosenblatt7082]

I have 3 Breitlings but when I saw the episode you did with Kevin I was instantly blown away by this watch. Breitling's problem of late has been that they are a bit hemmed in by the iconic nature of their mainstay offerings. This watch is fresh and gorgeous and blazes a new and compelling path for the brand. Thx for bringing attention to it. Another great video.

[@leeaaron7856]

I have this piece and this is the only breitling I have. After owning it for almost 1 year now, it still takes my breath away. I have placed this higher up in my collection than the speedmaster professional.

[@raver208]

I find this particular Breitling watch to be quite attractive and particularly tasteful in execution… I like the pistachio as it is called shade of green for the dial… Definitely aspiring to the Breitling brand myself eventually and I like seeing this degree of variation. It makes me more excited to have many choices when I graduate to this level of watch eventually.

[@edjack1993]

I have one (a 50th birthday present from a very generous wife!). The original strap is very nice. But I currently have it paired with a blue alligator strap from Molequin. Truly stunning combination, imho. One of those watches you just can’t stop looking at! 😊

[@vinzack3629]

Man i wish one day I could buy it!! Watch collecting is expensive 😔😔

[@andreaiacolina]

If I should buy an expensive chronograph, this one would probably be my choice. The color of the dial is simply stunning and the movement is a work of art. Beautiful.

[@leonelruiz7313]

I was debating between the Salmon Datora and this Pistachio Premier…. I found more meaningful the Premier based on your comments in the video. I’m a watch collector and it became as part of my collection at the beginning of 2022. Great review.

[@andrewhennessy9789]

I own one, and I absolutely love it. It was wildly expensive, but less than a Rolex. I swapped the strap for a bespoke, Combat Straps, cognac ostrich with matching green stitch & leather underside.

[@ryanelectra225]

This and the Datora are the first Breitling models I’ve lusted after for many years. They are a brand on the rise and I may add one to my collection

[@b.vonschnauser207]

I've loved this watch since its release a few years back. And you're right, it doesn't fall into the typical Breitling category because its not a gigantic, gaudy, garish watch. Bravo Georges Kern

[@michaelzelaskey2127]

I believe I mentioned this on an Instagram post of yours in the past but I absolutely LOVE this watch. The whole premier line is incredible to me and I think really gives Breitling a ton of depth in their lineup. And the color is fantastic. Love this watch a lot!

[@Maria-un9wl]

It's a great looking watch. I love innovation through subtlety. That pistachio dial is just that a little different but doesn't scream. It also has manageable dimensions.

[@7thGearCmac]

I really like the Pistachio B09 a lot. So much I bought it after trying it on a few times.

[@suckitfloop]

This piece really caught my eye in the watch shopping video. Breitling usually doesn’t do much for me but that dial is stunning

[@Steve-vl9ed]

You are 100% correct; I never imagined liking or wanting a Breitling until this model was released. It’s beautiful!

[@JohnBrown-go1ro]

I have never been a big fan of Breitling until now, love this watch and really love the B25 Datora 42.

[@dannyg6592]

This is my favorite Breitling. Lovely time piece. Beautiful dial.

[@bjarkelykkemadsen2874]

I love this watch. The tone of that green dial is is so well chosen. Well done Breitling:)

[@RobinsWatchJourney]

Love the pistachio but it is priced in the $10k range which is a real stretch for my budget. If I was spending that amount, I might choose two other watches, perhaps an Aqua Terra and a Sinn.

[@corygrove1434]

Lightly used and even unworn examples can be purchased for around $6,000 on Chrono24.

[@LlyleHunter]

This is such a beautiful watch to add to your spring and summer wardrobe. It’s such a beautiful and lighthearted watch to wear with casual clothing.

[@tomhohum4275]

I like this Breitling more that any of the other “iconic” designs this company offers. The pistachio color is fantastic. I’m not a fan of really busy dials so this also hits a sweet spot for me.

[@shanghaiffgg]

I wife bought me one of this at their flagship store in Geneva as an engagement gift and I absolutely love it, and her of course. Just don't ask me to choose.

[@TheJohnmjess]

Having owned a copper dial Navitimer for a few months I am now torn between this and the Datora. Breitling are really on their game right now, producing some pieces the Name truly deserve. Great review Teddy as always.

[@derKunstler]

I really like the Tissot mentioning in the beginning, since they give me similar vibes. Great deep dive and great looking watch. If I was buying a Breitling, it would be this one probably.

[@mikegeary2112]

I think this thing is a total hit I don't normally like green watches, but this pistachio has got me. I'd wear this

[@mikekrueger7629]

First, I enjoy watching your videos with Larry when you two are shopping against each other for watches I like to see what you are both picking out and why, and when that particular video went the two of you came up to the Breitling showcase and you took that primer B09 watch out of it in that pistachio green color. I stopped in my tracks and froze the video and enlarge the picture and was enamored with the color style and just overall appearance of that watch. I love it! I do an all black Navitimer 41mm which I just love and presently have it on while I write this. I’m always looking for something spectacular that catches my eye that makes me want it and seeing that watch it became the next watch I will purchase. That is how much I liked it overall the different watches, I’ve seen. I like it even more after watching your video today. Thank you for your videos Teddy, keep up the good job

[@rippleriveryellows1708]

Breitling I think got his one spot on. It' not oversized, it hasn't been over designed either. Why does this watch have a friendly appearance. Lovely.

[@wadebolderman3250]

I absolutely agree with everything you said. It doesn’t scream Breitling, therefore it is what Breitling used to be. It is a very understated, refined chrono with an identity all its own. Due in part to the dial color chosen but also the simple dial and subdial layout and a beautiful movement. All of this combined with the wise use of stainless steel throughout and that domed sapphire crystal makes it a winner. If you don’t like this watch, you don’t know watches.

[@dpl2617]

I'm not a Breitling guy, but definitely appreciate this model. The only critique would be the lack of a bezel. It almost looks on video that it's missing or popped off.

[@waffle911]

Strap is on backwards for a very good reason: having the strap tail towards the wearer orients the deployment mechanism the same as you would have on a bracelet. Deployment buckles are really awkward to operate with the strap on the traditional way around. That's why Seiko straps are often on backwards.

[@TheAmericanClassicist]

Absolutely love this piece! It is practically the perfect watch for my tastes. Unfortunately, I do not think I can justify purchasing it for quite a long time.

[@captvimes]

it is a very beautiful and unique looking watch. If I could justify spending that much on a watch I would own one already. I am not even that much of a fan of a green dial but that shade is just so good with the brown strap. Also to add as it is manual you get unhindered view of the beautiful movement from the back too,

[@michaeljordan6008]

At a 20% discount from your authorized dealer, this isn’t bad.

[@krunokirhenmajer1652]

This is my next watch. Its going to take a few years before I can gather the money for it but Im buying it. Ever since I saw it in the video I knew it was the watch I wanted more than any other even though I am not a green dial person. The watch Is just a masterpiece.

[@EmdrGreg]

I LOVE this watch. I have never had a Breitling, but this one is on my wish list.

[@bt3750]

There's something about your voice that allows me to watch your videos in 1.75 speed and understand you clearly. I'm limited to 1.5 speed for most other channels. :) This is the Breitling I'd choose to own.

[@corgi_leonberger7233]

Saw this watch today and hands down the one Breitling I'd consider owning but ideally it needs to be slimmer.

[@kakhabertukhashvili9367]

Style is everything Teddy, remember that, if you have it which is your own, unique, original, then doesn't matter what brand you wear, style is like status, you don't choose it, it's given. I think the next question is, how that happens, by experience, you're very near to that point, congratulations Teddy, welcome to the club!

[@CarlosISantos]

It does matter what brand you wear. Some brands elevate your status.

[@mr.monaco]

This one is off the chain. Its such a great alternative to a speedy. Especially being hand wound. Great proposition from Breitling. The salmon one with the day date and moon phase. Another level.

[@SailingLuckyEnough]

I bought this watch a few months back and I absolutely love it. If you think it looks good in this video go see it in person it’s amazing! Well done Breitling!

[@imaqt3.14]

Breitling has been on fire recently. Lots of watches i would wear from their new collections.

[@SpeedVS]

This watch & the IWC Portugieser Chronograph with the green dial are absolutely on my holy grail list.

[@duffydon1741]

IWC 🤔 🤔🤔🤮

[@wideningcarrot6]

@@duffydon1741 what’s wrong with IWC?

[@vedomedo]

I'm not really a fan of Breitling, but this watch is great! The only thing I can't "unsee" is how much it looks like a Patek Philippe 5172G, not that this means it's "bad" or anything.

[@nmdc93]

Love that green colour

[@zillsburyy1]

only watch i ever cared to own from them is the defunct blue dial COLT

[@dominickcolasanto6582]

Like it! and agree it's not your regular Breitling. I generally like Breitling and own Breitling watches they are quality and look good especially for the larger guys like me.

[@johnkasianowicz6536]

I liked the green version when I first saw it a few months ago, but the white version that I looked at yesterday is also very attractive.

[@stevestonrcguy5393]

Love the dial colour. I would love to see another version: same dial colour, without Chronograph and showing the full date👍

[@timgenter1264]

I like it. The price point seems off for what it is however.

[@wisamal-hakim5531]

This watch deserves its own review on your channel. Fantastic watch. I agree with every point you made

[@edkwon]

This is the one current Breitling reference I have a strong interest in owning.

[@ludovitvirag3911]

Great looking piece, I almost love it. Less busy dial then Navitimer, but I think a little bit pricey. Also the numerals did not have to be cut off by chrono subdials if the case was 42 mm or 44 mm

[@galenwilliamson907]

This caught my eye during one those crazy shopping sprees with Kevin. As many noted, never a Breitling fan, but I could jump in with this watch

[@saladbowl85]

I never likes their watches, but their mew design team is seriously great and I really love this watch

[@Baujahr90erAG]

Had this and the Premier B25 Datora on my arm a few days ago. One of the most beautiful watches i have ever seen. The dial is absolutely stunning and as a few people mentioned, in natural light and in real life, it is hard to beat if you like greens

[@billy.g3597]

This shade of green is gorgeous. But I prefer the iced blue of the Breitling Top Time Triumph Motorcycles limited edition chrono. You can get the watch and bike as a matched set. Oh I wish.........

[@gmartirosyan]

This breitling looks so great but still I'd go with split second blue dial b15

[@ptos8262]

Love the Premier line. I thought about pulling the trigger on this model but went with the Premier B01 Panda instead. That said, that green dial is stunning, what a great looking watch. I’ve never been a Breitling guy but with their rich history and newly subdued designs they’ve started to lure me in. I also like the new Chronomat line as well, the dials look great but I’m not crazy about the bracelets. I’m also not crazy about the new Superocean design at all. All in all I like the direction Breitling seems to be heading in and I look forward to seeing what Mr. Kern has in store next 👍🏻

[@FalconAnno75]

Saw it live. Odd as it may sound it’s very discreet for being a green dial. Very tasteful. Loved it.

[@p4ndorA]

Pros: Dial is beautiful and shines differently. Daylight and artificial light is perfect, low light its a little subdued. I would call the dial colour matcha :) Hands and numerals shine sometimes silver gold or black! the band shimmers especially in sunlight! mine is 0.5 sec too fast fully wound, second day 0,5 sec too late. If i keep track with winding, the time is always perfect to the second! Negatives: winding hurts! chunky boy but ok :) plexiglass style is retro and thematically right but i prefer domed crystal bad to read in low light conditions. i absolutly love this watch :)

[@MrZanzibar123]

Gorgeous watch. Love at first sight with that color. Got something very similar looking with the Farer Mansfield, for 1/8th the price. But these are amazing.

[@scottbrandon6244]

This watch also comes in a beige and burgundy colored dial. A smart move would be for Breitling to make the Premier B09 with a salmon colored dial.

[@danielleavitt5411]

Breitling fan here and this is one of my absolute favorites.

[@kyleweber9760]

A stunner, amazing in the green!!!

[@AmySilverKhoudari]

Just bought this watch. I had the same reaction as you Teddy. This is so impressive-looking, and it feels somewhat dressy. I am disappointed that it's not automatic. Otherwise I feel like this watch is a nice addition to my mostly sporty collection.

[@robertp5123]

Great review, Teddy. I have this timepiece in my collection. It is absolutely a stunning watch. Breitling really hit this one out of the park. I love wearing this watch. It really is an underrated timepiece.

[@avavaviv1]

It's inspoired by vintage patek chronographs. It's seagul 1963 with large budget.

[@JohnHausser]

0:04 Not a big fan of mesh bracelet but I want it Cheers from San Diego California

[@borjastick]

Apart from saying this watch 'flies under the radar' which it doesn't, I agree with everything you say about this beautiful piece. The other thing perhaps you could have said is that as Breitling is still climbing back up the credibility/must have ladder, the prices are not firm. This watch can be bought 'new' for a couple of thousand less. I would definitely have one.

[@chrisedwards9661]

I have tried this watch on multiple times and I would say it is my favorite Breitling and favorite green dialed watch. I love the use of a manual movement and how it allows for smaller size. A criticism I have heard is the strap seems to clash with the dial in person ( a bit too red) so I would probably change it to a more pure brown in calf with a pinbuckle ( I prefer pinbuckle over clasp...personal).

[@keithlos1497]

I tried on twice...agree with strap but something else didn't feel right compared to the stunning face.

[@dwglsmo]

Everything about this design is perfect - except the price. I actually prefer the strap keepers on the opposite side. Wish I had the budget for this piece. At this point, it will be purely aspirational for me. But, wow! I don't think I've ever seen a watch I love more than this.

[@raingodmusic]

Ive been obsessed with this watch since that episode where Kevin takes this watch from you during the watch battle lol.

[@Mwingreen]

Stunner. Favorite part besides green is the cut out 10 and 2 and 8. 4 was already open 😊hehe

[@fg3901]

I like understated watches so Breitling products were fun to look at but too much for me to wear. I think that watch is absolutely gorgeous and look forward to owning one.

[@davidc5191]

My favorite watch from Watches and Wonders last year.

[@tommogun3]

Simply stunning ! 😍

[@uberbrainbox]

I don't like it, I love it. To my eye, all other Breitlings look like they're trying a little too hard, whereas this has its very own subtle class. You have to know what you're looking for to spot it, and, pardon the obvious, but it's synonymous between the difference between a Rolls and a Bentley. This is quiet money. This isn't in your face showing off, it's what class is. It doesn't need to brag.

[@MastinoNapoletano420]

So glad you did this video. Ever since I saw it in your collection from your video with Kevin, I have been thinking this may be my first watch from Breitling. Thanks again Teddy!

[@coolti44]

That pistachio dial though…whew!! You’re gonna get me divorced Teddy! 😂 Thanks for the review.

[@kakhabertukhashvili9367]

Great job you're doing Teddy which started from the previous show, Premier is a beautiful watch indeed, try rose gold, always!

[@nikkolomakaveli8295]

I like how teddy always lists other alternatives the Tissot is a good recommendation or a Hamilton

[@dennisbrown3717]

This is one of the best looking pieces I have ever seen.

[@ahojnazdar3656]

Thanks for your take on the watch. I like it's unique color which makes the watch not the best choice as the only chrono in collection or for a single watch wielder. I don't like the watch as a complete package enough to pay such a high price for it - it is Breitling which is well known for it's dropping prices after couple years of ownership so it will be accessible for like 6k on the aftermarket. For my subjective taste the dial is vintage, but the chrono-pushers are modern - square - I would appreciate more classical look of them. At the end I find automatic winding so practical that I'm willing to accept 0.5 mm of thicknes for it.

[@Darkest_Soul_187]

Out of my price range, but I love it. Maybe some day!

[@quadrupleheart]

You're right Teddy I do need to know about this.

[@ChristopherAndersonDP]

Great video, Teddy! I love the way this watch looks. Even though green has been very trendy for a while, the way Breitling used the color on this and the Navitimer feels very classic.

[@azz710]

I think it's gorgeous, including the dial color.

[@billreich4665]

Great review. I like the pistachio color ...just not enough to buy it. Love your channel! I noticed a few times recently you use the word "ilk" and although probably properly used. Google say modern use of the word "ilk" has a "negative connotation". I don't think you intended it as a negative. Keep up the great work!

[@bjoernaltmann]

It has lots of vintage vibes going on, especially the typography. If you look at 1960s Heuer or Omega you will also see these details. Very nice
