Hello

I've just seen a picture of this watch and I would like hear some opinions about it. I've never owned a Breitling before so I don't know much about them.

Are discounts available at UK ADs on these watches?

Thanks

Cannot speak for UK but I absolutely love the watch.
I had one and I flipped it to get a different watch and I have been missing it every since. I am currently saving to get a replacement one.

It is very comfortable, very slim and ridiculously accurate.

Thanks for this.

Did you find the stop watch easy to use? It appears that you have to pull / push or turn the crown to use the different functions, is it easy to do?

Thanks again.

Great watch!!! UK Discounts can be had, you need to ask around!

I gave one to my gf a while back. Great watch but it can be a pain to use with only the crown. Turning the crown quickly will cycle through all the different functions. It's fairly easy to use/set if you know what function to be on and what they all do. The stop watch in particular is probably the easiest to use since you only have to start/stop it and reset.

The annoying part is that the crown does a double-duty. If you spin it slowly, it will light up the LCD screens; spinning it quickly changes the functions. You'll end up doing one when you want the other quite often.

I love the watch, it has become my daily just bc its so comfortable, the size is great, the functions help (when Im doing crossfit or at the gym), I use the countdown when Im swimming etc. I suppose I use the functions so often that Ive memorized the order. I have no issues scrolling to the one I like, and if you go past it you can always scroll back.You will not regret it. Here are some pics
The lume is great too

Thanks for these. I'll have to ask at the local AD if they have one I can have a look at.

Saw one on sale in Ernest Jones Lakeside in Jan for £1950(3100rrp) I think. Black dial, slightly older matt dial. Still brand new though. Almost bought it, could take 0% finance as well. Give em a call.
