Thenaven@aol.com Posted March 15, 2013 Report Posted March 15, 2013 As we can all agree in addition to the dial and build quality, one of the things that makes a Breitling, a Breitling is the sensational AR on the Crystal. So.. Which rep do you think has the best double AR, like a gen breitling?
hansmeier Posted March 15, 2013 Report Posted March 15, 2013 Very happy with double AR on my Skyland Avenger (from Trusty)! Nice blue hue in strong lighting, and in most cases the crystal is nearly invisible. Also very good double AR with blue hue on Chronomat B01 (also from Trusty). Weak AR on Navitimer and Montbrilliant 01.
Thenaven@aol.com Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Posted March 15, 2013 I've actually been tormenting myself between getting a B01 or a BCE. I can't decide which to get. Do you have a picture of the AR on your B01?
hansmeier Posted March 15, 2013 Report Posted March 15, 2013 Sorry, did not make any pictures yet... Maybe someone can chime in here?
hansmeier Posted March 16, 2013 Report Posted March 16, 2013 Just made some quick shots with Galaxy S3 camera... Sorry, not "high arts in photography" but maybe enough to get an idea about AR on B01...
Higs Posted March 16, 2013 Report Posted March 16, 2013 I'm happy with the AR on my Steelfish, Avenger and SuperOcean Heritage.... 1
hansmeier Posted March 16, 2013 Report Posted March 16, 2013 What I've read about quality and AR, I think the newer reps (from 2011 or 2012) are all very well made - please correct me if I'm wrong...@Higs: very nice Code Yellow! Like!
alexfilipov Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 I have a v2 BCE, the AR is slightly blueish and pretty OK..the Steelfish AR is better though. @Higs: +1 for the Code Yellow Seawolf
hansmeier Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 I have a v2 BCE, the AR is slightly blueish and pretty OK..the Steelfish AR is better though My BCE v3 is finally on its way from China to me... Really curious about the AR, so good to hear that the AR from v2 is pretty ok!
BigDD Posted April 2, 2013 Report Posted April 2, 2013 experts, are gen Super Avengers suppose to have that strong blue AR coating? I asked the same question in another thread since I didnt see this one. Mine SA looks great straight on, but in an angle there is a pretty strong blue hue esp in sun lights.
Doublewindsor Posted April 3, 2013 Report Posted April 3, 2013 I have two rep SA's and my boss has a gen SA, when we compare the the watches at different angles the AR coating is the same.
