Thanks for sharing, Fred. Excited to see what it's about. Last time you guys knocked it out of the park so to speak with the great releases. Lots of cool things happening at Breitling!

thanks for the kind words! we try to respect (and revive) the Breitling "core DNA" - so something very different from the 1940s-inspired Premier Heritage this time ;)

OK, here’s my guess. An automatic watch with a smaller smart watch in the strap. A modern take on one the Breitling models from the late ‘80s ‘90s. I have forgotten the name of the model with the additional watch in the strap but I clearly remember seeing them in the local AD’s window.

These new releases look awesome (other than the weird one with the second clock in the bracelet) but I wish they were the 42mm size! The 42mm with the ceramic bezel would be ideal....

I can't say that I am crazy about any of them, however I do like the coordinated colors on the crown and pushers, a very nice design imo. Although I like the idea of the four year calendar I think it would be better served in the Premier line up than that of the Chronomat series. I have always thought of a four year calendar watch as more of a dress watch but Georges and the team tend to think outside the box at times so who knows!
Right now my money is being put away for the Copper Datora and or the Blue Duograph |

Love these. My favorite is the standard black dial with white sub dials on non UTC integrated bracelet. Sign me up!
These new models are also .7mm thinner than last years 42mm release. Only thing I’d change is I’d prefer non color way crown and pushers but it’s not a dealbreaker. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

The other 1mm plus is the result of the domed crystal and the thickest part is in the center of the crystal . I believe that the super chronomat is thinner because is having a flat crystal. |

Lovely pieces! Breitling lived up to the expectations here in my opinion. A must have for anyone that appreciates the Chronograph complication.
