BeefSteak Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) Hello, I decided to buy my first Breitling. I wanted something a bit smaller that can be worn as a daily beater. Here are my QC pics - to me it appears like the triangle on '12' appear to be out of center. Would appreciate any input Edited September 18, 2012 by BeefSteak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxman Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 It's hard to tell about the triangle. It looks good to me. Bring the triangle to the dealers attention and see what he says. Good luck Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

van_damme1988 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Beautiful watch man. I have ordered the same model in Abyss Yellow as i wanted also something smaller and not so thick for daily use (few days ago also thanks to maxman's advice) I can't wait for it. Wear it with confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wear it with confidence. Ha, I see. I was very tempted to get yellow myself - it's very breitling-like. I decided to go with all black as I plan on wearing it with a dress shirt, and wanted a more formal look. I will probably end up ditching the rubber and go for black or brown croc. I notice it's not a very popular watch among breitling fans here, but I'll write a short review with some eye candy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 the triangle looks fine. Just curious, hows the lume on this one? Pardon my question, I have a weakness for watches with strong lumes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some may say that this model is not suitable to be worn as a dress watch. I say that they are so elegant and well made, that wearing them with suit is ok and still they have cool sporty look. It is something different from (for me) typical dress watches like IWC Portuguese or Portofino or any watches with classic look like Jaeger LeCoultre. And the yellow color is also more Breitling like as well as it is an eye catcher. Hope to see review with some hq pics soon. I will add some pics too when my package arrives.

van_damme1988 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) My QC pics have just arrived so here they are. I do not see any flaws, but maye you have better eyes. I would be glad for little help with them. I have been to local gen dealer to see gen and only thing i see is the color (which was more abyss on the gen) and swiss made script was closer to the yellow insert or how is it called. Btw. timegrapher results look fine to me, but i am not the pro. Thanks for your help Edited September 28, 2012 by van_damme1988 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeefSteak Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 looks fine to me. I don't have much knowledge related to this particular watch but I compared it to my qc pics and everything seems to be on point.. I'm really starting to like the yellow version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
