Would seem that it’s an Instagram version of the 8. Very in with the millennials.

Good thing you can see the B otherwise it could be from any other lower end Swiss brand.

Getting too small at 41mm and there is not much going on with the dial apart from the sunburst...I miss the wings!

Just seems a little plain for me.

It just doesn't feel like the BreitBLING we know and love.

The bezel feels needlessly busy for such a simple watch, reminds me of the Bentley bezels that I never liked.

Definitely not liking the new direction Breitling is taking. I love their agressive military-esque designs of the avenger series and the hyper complexities of the Navitimer series. Guess those just aren't the in things in fashion anymore.

Certainly not much excitement for Breitling’s new line of watches. If you take away the B logo you would not know or care who made the watch. For me, the watch is dull, boring, and small.

This Breitling especially with the bezel looks like a smart watch.

B need to be careful they don't lose their identity. I don't like these new versions, they just don't look like Bs.

I have not seen any positive comments from anyone of our RWI Breitling fans about the new entry-level Breitling's. The new boss is pushing Breitling in another direction. I have been buying B's since 1981. I won't be buying any of the new lower-priced watches.

I don't mind the B logo on the SOH as I think it suits the watch very well but pushing it out across all models doesn't feel like a Breitling collection.
