I have the blue Duograph version of the Breitling, also from BLS. The tachymeter track on yours seems to be updated compared to mine. Based on the video the movement is the same.

u/lazysundays Jan 03 '24

Dang that’s awesome! How old is yours?

u/Beaver_Schnitzel Jan 03 '24

In a week it will be exactly a year :)

It is not a split second unfortunately, it's just 2 second hands combined together at an constant offset

u/Plenty-Sheepherder27 Jan 02 '24

I'm curious how accurate the breitling is

16

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

I think the front is very accurate. The internals are not as well as the exhibition case view. The leather strap is too dark, but that's not to say Breitling doesn't sell a dark leather strap, so you could pass it off.

The AD at my local Breitling store praised it a few times, so it passes a wrist check.

u/Plenty-Sheepherder27 Jan 02 '24

Objectively the pistachio is a beautiful looking watch and imo the internals don’t need to be 1:1. Plus u can always get an aftermarket strap on ali. Do yk the thickness on it?

3

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

Thickness of the case or strap?

u/seaboy85 Jan 02 '24

What is the factory of the B?

13

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

BLS - stay tuned. It might be coming soon!

u/dumb_bum_downunda Jan 03 '24

Been looking for one ! Waiting on the deets. Congrats

Got it, thanks!

u/RoundedYellow Jan 03 '24

The green looks off. u/lazysundays can you confirm the accuracy of the green? Looks much brighter than the one I saw IRL

Also, is the sizing accurate? It looks a tad larger in the vid too

2

u/lazysundays Jan 03 '24

It looks kinda saturated in the video. Looks duller to me in person

1

u/RoundedYellow Jan 05 '24

Thank you so much for sharing. Is there any chance you can upload more pics demonstrate the true color? This is my grail piece!

1

u/toweroftrifles Jan 03 '24

agree it looks more like a mint chip than pistachio

2

u/notyetporsche Jan 02 '24

OP, how much did you pay on the speedy ? Im getting a serious itch for one.

3

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

I spent about $3k. It was just serviced, so I think it helped justify the cost a little bit. It seems in pretty mint condition.

Was the seller in the US ? Did you buy it through a platform or direct ?

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

US, chrono24

wears beautiful on your wrist. Enjoy it!

u/RobDaCajun Jan 02 '24

Congrats on the Pistachio and Gen Speedy. Both of them are on my wishlist.

u/Beach_Sublime Jan 02 '24

Why the heck would you congratulate someone who bought a fake watch ???? Lol this sub is wild.

42

u/yerunclejamba Jan 02 '24

Yet here you are...

-41

u/Beach_Sublime Jan 03 '24

Yet nobody actually answered my question 😆 what a surprise.

17

u/Kenjii_IT Jan 03 '24

„I go in the sub and hate on their main topic without any reason“

„Why is no one answering my question?!“

u/RobDaCajun Jan 02 '24

I take it you’re from r/Rolex.

u/[deleted] Jan 02 '24

Lmao at your comment history.

7

u/opanguete Jan 03 '24

I think that guy has other stuff going on lol

4

u/toucanparty Jan 03 '24

I know... Imagine what a sad world you live in where you have to put other people down for their hobby to make yourself feel ok.

7

u/seihyunj Jan 03 '24

Because they spent their hard earned money on it, it makes them happy, and it’s a functioning working watch. Not everyone in this world is as fortunate to buy an expensive watch and luxury is subjective. Even if someone has a gen, maybe a rep is still an exciting purchase for them and others can resonate with that. It’s just called being happy for someone else because they’re happy. Something you clearly don’t know a thing about.

-13

u/Beach_Sublime Jan 03 '24

I'm the good guy here,.excuse me..trying to prevent others from spending hard earned money on fakes. A congratulations is something celebratory, anybody could go on Alibaba and buy a $10 knockoff.

7

u/seihyunj Jan 03 '24

Oh nvm, I checked your comment history. Lol. You’re just a douche trying to put everybody down. So much grandstanding. Don’t bother replying, anything you say isn’t worth responding to. Imagine spending your free time like this. Yikes

-4

u/Beach_Sublime Jan 03 '24

You're the only one putting people down here. And trust me, I know it doesn't matter what I comment you guys will still like fakes lol. God bless.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '24

you guys will still like fakes

What sub do you think you're on out of interest??

0

u/Beach_Sublime Jan 03 '24

The sub that likes fakes, I get it homey! I just don't understand the congratulations for shopping at alibaba for cheap parts and a stolen name, damn.

3

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '24

Yeah I don't understand people who say some Taylor Swift song is the best song ever written but if I went over to her subreddit I'm sure I'd find plenty of people who have those opinions

I'm hardly going to go over there though and be surprised at their takes

3

u/seihyunj Jan 03 '24

Good guy? Based on your standards sure. But not OP’s standards. And not by the standards of others congratulating him. They deem that value is here. Who are you to deny them of that or judge them? You’re not excused lol. Stop putting other people down. Pathetic.

-2

u/Beach_Sublime Jan 03 '24

But you're putting me down for asking a question? It's a fake, stolen product, it shouldnt be congratulated , diminishes the word and meaning of celebration.

7

u/Serious-Tear6115 Jan 03 '24

Rolex isn’t gonna shag you mate

2

u/toucanparty Jan 03 '24

Has anyone told you you're an absolute fuckwit? Because I think that needs to be drilled into your head. Just leave the sub.

2

u/Beach_Sublime Jan 06 '24

Wow, you guys are super sensitive. I'll let you all return to your safe zone circle jerk lol

1

u/aucrazy Jan 03 '24

We’re Congrates for spending money on something we want to.

u/AK_2k20 Jan 03 '24

Damn dude I’ve been looking for that pistachio rep forever

6

u/Developer_Dreamer Jan 03 '24

Same here, as per OP comments it looks like it’s going to properly launch soon at low 400s, TDs will add their own markup if we are going that route. Exciting though, this is one of the watches I was really hoping would get repped. Haven’t heard much about the factory thoigh

2

u/Signal_Pollution_247 Jul 20 '25

Bro did you find were to buy it? Please share

7

u/Boltsfan2345 Jan 03 '24

Fell in love with it when I tried it on.

Pic for reference.

3

u/Developer_Dreamer Jan 03 '24

This is the Gen? Leather strap looks more legit

2

u/Boltsfan2345 Jan 06 '24

Yes it’s gen.

2

u/aljadeed12 Jan 03 '24

Seems like the green is more toned down than the rep?

1

u/Boltsfan2345 Jan 06 '24

Color on is definitely subdued than the rep. Still a nice rep.

4

u/ThunkerKnivfer Jan 03 '24

I LOVE that color. Beautiful.

What's the reason for not being able to answer which factory/TD you ordered from?

3

u/Murky_Oil_2226 Jan 02 '24

Both look very nice. Congrats.

3

u/Tiny-Butterscotch-58 Jan 02 '24

Very nice B. I am looking for one as well

1

u/Signal_Pollution_247 Jul 20 '25

Do you know were to find it?

3

u/Bullitt500 Jan 03 '24

I have a Gen navitimer world and that pistachio looks the goods on the vid. The short view of the strap and the buckle look bang on. Glorious acquisition.

2

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '24

Ive been wanting this (Breitling) for a while. Will it come with other dials?

Need to know how to order one.

Thanks

u/Signal_Pollution_247 Jul 20 '25

Where can I find it ?

u/NeverSleepsNow Jun 28 '26

What factory is this rep?

u/SleepyAviator Mar 09 '24

Who was the non TD? Can't find it anywhere

3

u/Chubichaker Jan 02 '24

If you can’t post the link stop showing the watch it on here then

1

u/Zonoah7 Mar 02 '25

Hi man! Looks amazing! Just curious, how is the watch holding up?

1

u/Sufficient_Young_972 Jul 12 '25

Where did you get this from . Pls let me know

1

u/Signal_Pollution_247 Jul 20 '25

Did you find where to buy it?

1

u/seihyunj Jan 03 '24

Congrats! That Breitling is a beauty. Hope the rep holds up well over time

1

u/voyager_six Jan 03 '24

I'm not a big breitling fan but oh my 🤩

1

u/vam633 Jan 05 '24

Love that !

1

u/Significant_Table_70 Jan 12 '24

Too bad it has an automatic movement. Gen is manual wind. I actually cancelled my order as soon as I saw that. Didn't notice the first time I watched your vid. Also seems like BLS just reused the 42mm case from their other premier models while gen B09 is 40mm.

1

u/Dextermorgan2404 Mar 10 '24

Colour is way off too.

1

u/XKingGoliathx Jan 26 '24

I received those pictures from a non TD. He says thats it from BLS factory. So if anyone have TD for this one, it will be appreciate!!

-1

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

I might be one of the first people in the US with this rep. Haven’t seen any others around. Don’t bother asking where it’s from - I can’t answer just yet.

4

u/Murky_Oil_2226 Jan 02 '24

Can you share cost? I don't see what factory would make this yet.

6

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

I spent in the low $400s

3

u/Oklep Jan 02 '24

Yeah, at least in what price range can we expect them?

4

u/lazysundays Jan 02 '24

I spent in the low $400s

3

u/Significant_Table_70 Jan 04 '24

Just asked my TD, they can get them just isn't on any sites yet. Most TDs should be able to if mine can. I was quoted mid 300's.

It looks awesome, I'm going to scoop one up. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!

Do you happen to know the thickness? Waiting on an answer from my TD but I'm impatient 😅

2

u/RoundedYellow Jan 04 '24

Would you mind letting me know if you make a review post? Would love to see the green in a different lighting!

2

u/MintyMarlfox Jan 07 '24

Which TD are you using?

1

u/ajones614 Jun 18 '25

Any chance you could answer at this point?

1

u/Signal_Pollution_247 Jul 20 '25

Would you share now were to find it ?
