The heritage line up is pretty good. What do you guys think?

flyboyyy · 10 April 2021, 05:30 AM

I really quite like the Salmon, the Pea Soup not so much...

yessir69 · 10 April 2021, 06:22 AM

The brand seems to be going in the right direction.

Rrpdc · 10 April 2021, 07:06 AM

I like the moonphase but not the color of dials. Salmon/ green. Not for me.

Agree

The salmon dial looks great!

I like both of those watches!

yoast · 10 April 2021, 01:34 PM

The bratek looks quite nice, but I read it was a little large.

EdwardC · 10 April 2021, 01:54 PM

Really want to see in person to see the salmon calendar chrono. It's 42 but for the amount of content on the dial it's acceptable to me

alexlt730512 · 10 April 2021, 02:59 PM

this year with all other watch manufacturers that i think bretling is the winner

DCheeta · 10 April 2021, 03:28 PM

I love the Breitling releases this year. The winner for me is the blue dial Duograph.

Nikrnic · 10 April 2021, 04:41 PM

I do like the blue duograph. I'm not a big chrono fan, even though the salmon dial is nice looking it's just too much going on for me.

I’m really digging the new Breitling releases this year. IMO they did great. It has been a very long time since Breitling has done anything exciting, this year seems to be a start of good things to come.

They are homeruns. Almost ordered the perpetual but thinking that Breitling ends up selling at a discount and decided to wait

WatchEater666 · 13 April 2021, 05:18 AM

They look gorgeous. Really really well done IMO. I somehow love and hate the green color at the same time lol

Rrpdc · 13 April 2021, 05:19 AM

Prob with breitlings for me is the value retention. I am in market for breitling premier b01, where would be the best place to purchase one that gives a decent discount?

rootbeer7 · 13 April 2021, 07:31 AM

Really great looking pieces

sambb · 13 April 2021, 10:25 AM

i want the perpetual! wish i knew more about it

myporsche · 13 April 2021, 11:28 AM

Very nice, elegant and classy. Breitling has some winners here.

Ichiran · 13 April 2021, 12:12 PM

The Ladies Chronomat blue and green dials are also spectacular. I think they have done very well since Georges Kern joined.

shaunylw · 13 April 2021, 12:23 PM

The b28 in salmon looks awesome.

KBM · 14 April 2021, 02:18 AM

Breitling had some amazing releases this year. I definitely want to try the duograph and complete calendar on, especially to see how tall they wear, but the press images look astonishing!

stockjock1975 · 16 April 2021, 03:10 AM

I think the brand is moving in the right direction. I just wish they would cut their sizes down on more pieces to sub-40mm.

The thickness bugs me more than the diameter, 15.3mm for the salmon dial

I agree 15.3 mm is pretty thick. If they got this to 12-13 it would look less bulky in my opinion.

At 12-13mm I would seriously consider getting one! Aesthetically I really like the Premier Heritage lineup.

MichaelFlash · 16 April 2021, 07:00 AM

I don't like Breitling usually. These 2 I like. Very nice.

Justindo · 17 April 2021, 01:36 PM

I think all of the Breitling Premier Heritages look great and are definitely among the best looking releases of any brand this year. The regular 40mm x 13mm chronograph would be my choice and I actually like the pistachio dial but I'd definitely be a buyer if the steel version was released in the copper dial. However, the 42mm x 15.3mm cases as well as the movements of the Duograph and Datora give me pause. (These are cases are a bit large and thick for my taste and the Duograph is a modular movement with no second column wheel and the Datora is not based on the B01. Still, considering these would be six figure watches from a top tier brand, albeit with engineering and movement finishing to match, these are great buys if one wants these complications but can't afford or doesn't want to spend that much.) I will say that if I were looking for something like the Datora, I'd probably go for the JLC Master Calendar chronograph for a little more money.
