Agreed, 45mm was too big on my Emergency Mission. 51 is silly.

Price was posted on Breitling Source at $18K, I think I'll pass

Quite right!

I just had a price from a local AD £12+

psv · 25 April 2013, 01:34 AM

Silly, silly, silly.

h999r · 25 April 2013, 01:47 AM

I heard Rapper Flavor Flav has ordered one.

Watchflair · 25 April 2013, 01:48 AM

Size wise that may just be too big. Under 45mm is really idea and the higher end of that is pushing it. Price wise yikes! It's a quartz watch, I know all the gizmos that are in it but jeez. The previous model was what $5 or $6 k? I had a emergency titanium black dial a few years back and loved it.

salem65 · 25 April 2013, 05:13 AM

The 51mm size is stupid, but the 18k price is ridiculous; who does Breitling think they are.

ippon20 · 25 April 2013, 05:42 AM

It's not 18k. Maybe for the black titanium limited. But if you guys honestly think 18k is the price, you need to check your sources. Breitling is not concerned about folks that think 51mm is too large, fact is most if not all e2's are allready accounted for at least in the states.

The Joker · 25 April 2013, 06:41 AM

51mm

That thing could be the reason you actually crash your plane.

jnelson3097 · 25 April 2013, 08:05 AM

Correction, I guess MSRP in the US will be around $15K.

More around 12ish

Rashid.bk · 25 April 2013, 09:32 AM

51mm?!......lost interest. Goodbye Breitling section.

WJGESQ · 26 April 2013, 11:02 AM

No pics yet?

This forum is slipping. Or does no one care?

Racerdj · 27 April 2013, 10:09 PM

The new size matches the new price!

Grumpy Badger · 30 April 2013, 07:50 PM

I REALLY like it!

I've long coveted the original but held off with all the talk of the frequency being outdated and a new model in the pipeline.

I'm old-school to the bone but I don't mind this being big because of the technology it brings to the party rather than just a big blingy case with a tiny ickle movement somewhere inside.

I would hold never to use it but I would be buying it for it's practical application rather than just trying to look like Bear bloody Gryls.

The Joker · 14 May 2013, 09:40 PM

This thing is huge, does it need to be this big.

Gotta say Breitlings promo's are sooo cheesy. Like how all the helicopter crew have breitlings as well

Lol-x · 15 May 2013, 12:49 AM

Wow 51mm is huge and $15K....well that is not an inconsiderable sum

But I really like the orange dial

Survivor · 15 May 2013, 12:54 AM

who does Breitling think they are

Uhhhh.....maybe they think they're Breitling

Watchflair · 16 May 2013, 10:35 AM

Anyone know an eta of when these will hit ads? Def have to see it and try it on in person

GermanyMatt · 16 May 2013, 05:00 PM

Ummm...military pilots, and really anyone who is part of the US military, doesn't need this watch or its functions. We have much better gear.

Guess that would be why the military isn't who Breitling is targeting with the e2.

GermanyMatt · 16 May 2013, 11:40 PM

No, it's me who should be

I was just going by screen captures - I really don't care who they're targeting.

Watchflair · 23 May 2013, 06:22 AM

Got a call from my AD today and they will have the new Emergency in their showroom in about 2 weeks. Price $15k !?!?!? Yikes. He said that they aren't even interested in stocking the watch because they are shocked at the price hike and unsure of the potential customer interest due to the increase. I am still going to go in and check it out when they have one available, figure worst case it's an excuse to check out some clocks. I'll post a pic when I do. Me being 6 ft 180 lbs I wonder how a watch of that size will wear lol.

WJGESQ · 30 November 2013, 11:20 AM

Are they really going for 15k?

Watchflair · 1 December 2013, 10:56 PM

Yup. Crazy right. That's the retail pricr

VICI · 2 December 2013, 01:50 AM

Crazy until it ever comes in handy.

Then it'll be worth much more

vitalsignsrn · 2 December 2013, 03:05 AM

Gorgeous watch..too bad too big.

mike@ec · 2 December 2013, 12:47 PM

i really like this watch, am waiting for in to arrive at my local AD

GB-man · 2 December 2013, 04:17 PM

My super avenger barely stayed inside my wrist at 48 mm (rougly 7.25 flat wrist). This thing must be a tank. That promo video was pathetic given it seems them spent some money doing it. Then again, I often hate marketing that ends up connecting with the target market. So hey, what the heck.
