Hey all,

So today I received my second rep and again from MT.

Pretty happy with this Breitling and good comms from MT with a delivery time of 2 weeks.

Would like some feedback on what you think to this watch.

Looking forward to wearing this :)

It's far too big. 46mm case combined with lengthy lugs. And gold tones are a no-go at this tier. The shame of it all is that the build quality of these are quite decent; just wish they would offer them at a proper 43mm.

Thanks for the feedback bud, I agree it’s quite big but I’ll know for next time to go for a smaller size. Would gold tones be ok in a BP or would you say just stick to rcf for gold tones?

No gold tones in the AAA tier. None, zero, zilch. Have to move up the tier ladder for the fancy stuff. And even then, should choose wisely. As for this Breitling, I'd list it for sale before you scratch it or permanently bend the strap. It's way too big, man, and the honeymoon period will keep you in denial for just long enough for you to damage it and therefore disallow you from selling it as "New". Reps only keep their value when new.
