Hello Kan,

I carry Breitling and I have the Blackbird 44. It's a really nice timepiece, never had any complaints about it. The retail US is $5105 and we are authorized to give 10% off. I do not know what it would be in Dublin as I am not certain what the VAT and exchange would be.

Hello Kan Cheung,

I do not have a Blackbird 48 so I cannot really speak to it, but I do like the Blackbird 44. A very sporty watch with the military style band. I like the look, aesthetically, and, of course, it is a quality timepiece from Breitling.

The 48 is really popular and an excellent timepiece for the price (around $5k as someone else mentioned). The only problem that someone may have with it, as with other Breitling timepieces is the huge lugs and size. Other than that, I think the light weight, military strap and style is perfect for many occasions and outfits.

I wouldn't wear it with a suit or at any formal event, although you can get away wearing it at work.

Titanium is rather light considering it is still 44 mm. Steel would be a lot heavier.

Any further thoughts or reviews on this match? How does the case coating hold up?
