    anyone here bought this, or received allocation notice for one?
    250 units, sold out in an hour.
    It’s yucky. My rainbow collecting wife and daughter have zero interest in this :)
    (I lied, it’s the only watch they both want! Ever!)

    It’s a really good move for Breitling. They are the least female friendly brand, in-term of offerings. This gets lots of eyelashes blinking.

    Sorry, not manly enough for me.
    I like my divers in more masculine pastels.

    Stupid question, but the color on the hands only fits into the dial at 10:08, or does it change color as it goes around? :eek:

    I like Breitling with minimum colors.

    It would be badass if hands change colors to markers as they go around.
    I say it’s absolutely possible, with oled and solar panel dial.
    Mechanical movements.

    Damn, it’s a beauty. That honey brown strap makes the dial even juicier.

    If they were the normal thickness of the older SOH’s maybe, but they’re so thing now, add the color... an entirely different feel.... not for me

    Looks like Breitling chewed and swallowed Swatch but some of it got stuck between the teeth.

    Looks like a paint manufacturer collaboration. Can imagine the paint consultant asking: "Now, Mrs Smith, do you prefer 9 or are you leaning more towards 6?" <Trying to not say 6 in Kiwi accent, for those across the ditch>

    A client of mine is a pretty serious diver.
    Him and his wife have a boat and travel a couple times a year to dive around the world.
    He bought her one to wear on the boat etc. She wears her fathers Sub when diving but will tell you that is just for sentimental reasons, she uses a dive computer.
    It is a unique looking watch, Id have to love Breitling dive watches have a healthy collection and already have the basic version of this to even consider one for myself.

    Correct, the hands do not change color.

    Not my cup of tea either. Not sure why they picked a color for the hands. Should have been silver IMO.
