Breitling / Tudor collaboration



Reading another watch forum, I noticed the above posted reference that Breitling and Tudor are collaborating, and found this interesting.

Tudor and Breitling working together...

Just seen the attached bit from A blog to watch!

Seems Tudor and Breitling are now sharing movements, the new bb chrono apparently is Breitling based 🤔

Interesting!

Yes I saw this very interesting.

Also the new price points were exciting!

Clever idea. This also speaks for the quality of the Breitling B01 movement and vice versa.

I was at the new Tudor store in Vegas today and brought this up...they knew nothing about it, and looked at me like I was nuts.

isn't that always the case!

we are privy to a lot of information on the watch forums that AD employees are not aware of....most AD employees don't even care about or like the watches they sell!

As long as neither is going into a Rolex, I'm fine with it.

neat.

in many ways, the ETA stop-sell on ebauches to others is win for creativity.

The finishing on the Breitling version looks far nicer than the Tudor sandblasted effect!
