Calling all Breitling Fans.. WHAT'S THIS MODEL?

[daytona4me]

Ok all of you breitling fans,, What can you tell me about this watch?

Bad Replica, got it all wrong?
Fantasy Watch?
Good Genuine?

 

[Dizzy]

some sort of 125th anniversary model?

I think it looks really good.

 

[exeekias]

I don't know exactly but I want one

Looks like the rhodium dial chronomat but with red subdial hands.
I haven't seen the red hands before but they look sweet.
Customized gen or special edition?

If it's a rep, it's a good one. sign me up.

It is a rep. The Genuine shows a glimpse of this watch on page 129 of their catalog.

Or on their website, go to this link, and click the "versions" and then you can click on the actual gen to enlarge the photo.

On the first look it appears to be a decent copy - well, by a color blind rep maker...

Most appears decent until you glance at the 1 o'clock position... and see red...

 

[AudioFanKJ]

Actually - all subdial hands on the gen are not red, nor is the tip of the chrono seconds hand...

The subdials also appear to be silver or metallic on the gen.

Nice guess AudioFan, but that's a different watch.

Not exactly. This is a genuine article.
I saw this watch last year on one of gen Breitling sites and it's a SE Chronomat model from at least 2007.

 

[AudioFanKJ]

OK, I will gracefully accept my beat down and wave my white flag o noobie surrender...

I happened to fall in love with a Breitling Navitimer when looking at a jewelers with the wife... which landed me registered here a few days later...

Had the catalog and thought I could nail this one down.

Never thought of previous models. :roll:

Will chalk that one up to learning... Thanks for the correction.

 

[Dizzy]

so D4M what limited edition series is this? It is for sure a gen but i've never seen this color combo before.

I'm sure I've seen it before...or could that be the one with differently colored hands. 20th annyversary BCE maybe..?

Anyway, send it off to Guangzhou for 1:1 rep-ing! I'm sure China-Mike would provide assistance if required

Wear it in good health!

 

[exeekias]

Congrats, man, that's a beautiful watch you have there
So, is it the rhodium dial?

edit: oh and mods please move this to the gens forum.

 

[d4m.test]

Dang that is gorgeous.

I will take the rep the day it comes out!!!

 

[andreww]

Nice choice D4M! You weren't kidding when you said you were getting a gen, you sure did it right!

Wear it well my friend!

 

[Para]

Do you remember the wolf character in old cartoons whistling his head off... well, that's me looking at that watch... damn fine, damn fine.

Great choice, congrats!

Re: Calling all Breitling Fans.. More Pictures..

Here's a Gen Lume Shot.. and let me tell you how lucky I am to have this letter. The letter actually arrived to dealers weeks before the watch did.
Most all dealers just pitched this letter,, thankfully my dealer kept it around for some reason, and now.. it makes the watch worth even more!
A collectors item for sure,, I lucked out!

Thanks for the nice words guys,, I appreciate it.
