Hooligan-- how much is the gen?

The gen 38mm Heritage (it has the cool "6 eater" seconds subdial) on bracelet MSRP is something like $3050.

Here are some pics:

You guys are funny! The heritage is a factory reproduction of a vintage Breitling diver, It's the Omega's that look like it not the other way around :p

I am aware of that, but it does not change the fact that it has no place in MY personal collection.

Well nobody's perfect! :p

I've been drooling at these since they showed them off at Bazel, I think I've decided on center seconds leather or rubber.

now If only an armored car would accidentally loose a bag of money in front of my house! :wink:

Is it just me, or should the edge of the bezel on the rep be slightly more curved? The gen looks like it has a bit of a curve from top to bottom, the rep looks like the edges are straight up and down.

IMHO it's pretty nice but it needs to be on rubber and not on a leather strap. They should have released a Skyland before this though. I don't know if anyone else agrees but I think a Skyland would out sell this many times over.

Nice! that is the original they reproduced. IDK why swiss manufacturer are doing this. But they definetly are recreating there own classics and selling them; like hotties w/o panties.

They were releasing it exactly 50 years after the introduction of the first one...

50 years wasn't that long ago when it comes to a Swiss watch marque design, being Breitling, Rolex, Panerai or any other brand.

Being 5 decades old doesn't justify its "less than attractive" (to say the least) appearance.

Breitling purists - shot me for this, but frankly I don't care 8)

I am definitely loving this watch -- black dial with rubber/deployant strap...
