PLEASE do also reads the description of the video... I am curious to read your comments and ready to answer your questions ...
Excellent job again Alexander. Really don't understand why people don't have more love for Breitling, they really doing a great job with the new watches. Breitling is back!!
Breitling is back in fact... and they will continue and show us more pieces that are linked to the past ...
The blue dial is absolutely gorgeous!! It looks like the took extra care in the movement finishing, as well.
Yes, Breitling can ... 🤩
Great review Alexander. your reviews are informative,educational and detailed. Was not a fan of Breitling over the years however i'm impressed and liking this new collection. Keep up the great reviews and for the time and effort that you put into them. You are my favorite You tube channel.
I am happy to read this. Love your comment! Thanks for sharing and let me know if you have any questions ...
Split second chrono at this price point is unbeatable! I tried it on before surprisingly it fits my 16mm wrist perfectly despite the 42mm case and it's thickness.
My wrist is 17 cm and you clearly see it fits perfectly... Due to the smart & modular construction of the split second mechanism (28 parts) Breitling can offer this complication for an attractive price...
Hi Alexander. One of most revered watch channels in RUclips, you are by far one of the best reviewer in informing the most intricate/ technical details for any watch. Although you have promised to review the Breitling Datora, its been more than 2 months and I am still patiently waiting :) Hope to see this review soon. Thank you for your service.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback! I am still waiting to get the Datora to film them… the first ones in Austria haven directly been delivered to the retail and were sold immediately… I know some of you are waiting and I will deliver this video…
Very Interesting time piece
Happy to see this quality from breitling !!!
The steel/blue chronograph ranks among the beautifulest I have seen for a very long time…
I love your channel! I fell in love with watches when my grandpa gave me his Seiko 1967 6217-8001 also known as the 62mas! Seiko's first diver model!
I am happy to read this! Love your comment! It was also my father in my early days already who infected me with the ticking virus… 😉
The blue is perfect, and the second also is beautiful
The blue dial is 🤩
Thank you again for bringing these mechanical marvels made by one of the most iconic swiss brands. It is awesome that a ratrapante function being able in a mechannical mechanism. I,m sorry, because I belong to the microchip's generation. These two watches look plenty of resistence and at the same time dressy and sophisticated too. Breitling deserves the best, and every success as well!. Thank you!
Saludos!!
I am happy to read this! Thank you! I love the way you are sharing your passion for watches with us...
Black and Gold is absolutely incredible 😍
Have you had the chance to see and try it in real yet?
Absolutely stunning love the gold but the blue is also beautiful
The blue dial is stunning beautiful ... personally nota a fan of gold watches and lacquered, deep black dials ...
great watches the rattrapante complication is really nice. Great job
Not sure what I would use it for... but playing/having fun with my chronograph would be something I would do for sure ...
Bravo Breitling. Mr Kern please just continue, you are on the right direction. I like the steel blue dial. From these line i like all the Steel models more than the ones in Gold.
Georges Kern is finally resurrecting the brand's past ... the former owner - the Schneider family - was ignoring it ...
Very nice! The 18k version looks really exquisite.
Sporty-elegant in fact!
The blue !!! Waow
Yes! 🤩🤩🤩
Another great product from Breitling. In the last year this brand is really growing in my preference.
I just wrote this comment... Let me copy and paste it here again... Georges Kern is finally resurrecting the brand's past ... the former owner - the Schneider family - was ignoring it ...
blue looks great!
It does! IMHO one of the nicest vintage inspired chronographs for a long time...
I tried it on in the boutique the other day and it’s not too bad for it’s thickness though. Overall a very nice Chronograph with split second at this price point😀
My words... I always recommend to try a watch on the wrist... numbers about thickness do not "speak" the truth... Well done! Bravo!
Great video, thank you for the effort. I was interested in the RG Duograph and your video shows how nice it looks, would make a nice partner to my Lange Double Split
Thanks for sharing our passion! Let me know if you have questions
Smart looking blue dial and a really cool execution. Breitling getting their act together after years of producing wrist weights for the gymnasium. Nobody will go anywhere near even a sink with a leather strap so it’s all academic regarding water resistance. Handsome pieces and beautiful movements with a rare cool complication. Looking forward to seeing these in the shops. Exciting times for Breitling, but bring back the wings and anchor. Just not the same with a singular lonely ‘B’ adorning the dial.
The split-second chronograph function is in fact a modular (patented) construction with only 28 components being placed between the main-plate and date wheel and therefore is not visible through the case-back.
You must like the blue Duograph, Alexander, but that rose gold model is to die for!
I am a huste fan of blue, so YES 😜 this is my favorite
Good review. In fact, I did try the blue durograph and the salmon dial full calendar chronograph at the boutique a couple of days ago. I was worried the thickness would be a big turn off given it's 15.3mm. However, once I tried in on and it didn't seem too be an issue for me. It's acceptable in my view after I tried on my wrist. It's a very sophisticated complication so the case's thickness need to be compromised a bit. At the price point, it's a great deal for a split second complication. The blue dial looks amazing when looking at the real thing.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! Let me know if you have any questions...
I would use this functionality to time the knocking of ball - bearings on my desk Newton's cradle.
The price is vaulting the watch above Omega territory; but I can see why. Finally Breitling have created something not over groomed, a little more rugged, and with the dedication to the open backed presentation that is worth display, a watch of excellence.. In Australia my friends would say that Breitling watches were for a younger man, but as a middle aged man, I can see this watch working with the professional image I want. I am surprised the blue dial is so much cheaper as Blue is a colour that is hard to get right. Thanks Alexander.
The price of the "black dial" is caused by the 18 carat gold case and folding-clasp versus the steel case and steel folding-claps of the "blue dial" ... so it is not the dial, but the case defining the higher price...
Very interesting watch.....can not wait until they come out in pastatio green. The Bentley green is very nice to.
Well that would in fact be an option to extend the use of that pistachio green dial to other collections... The color seem to be very popular!
Once again a great review Alexander. I love the box crystal and the case, and the rattrapante function is wonderfully executed on these watches. Ultimately for my preference if I was in the market I'd probably look at the Navitimer rattrapante options as I'm not a fan of numeral slicing by the sub dials but that's just a personal preference. The down side is the Navitimer has the off set date that would bug me somewhat. You cannot please everyone all of the time.
I'm always amazed at how many people can't take the 4:30 date window. I have like four watches with it. I find they get the watch very close to a no date. The 4:30 window for me disappears. Way more than the 3 and 9.
@@robertsullivan4773 I completely agree a date at 4:30 is arguably much better than at 3 or 9 so not to intersect a numeral point or a sub dial. I'm ambivalent of the date complication but my preference would be at the 6 subject to the date wheel colour.. A minor gripe I guess as we all have our preferences. Thank you for your thoughts Robert.
Breitling have introduced some very interesting new chronographs this year. Out of the two variants shown here, I actually prefer the red gold, due to the better contrast between the hands and dial.
This new CEO is doing a great job so far with the brand. Just out of curiosity...these watches don’t include a separate Flyback function as well, do they? Like I believe some Lange’s do.
beautiful watches, beautiful review
Which one would you choose?
@@WatchAdvisor Honestly…. At those price points, im thinking of all 3
Beautiful chronograph nice work Breitling wish it was under 10k canadian
The price is pretty aggressive for a split-second chronograph done at that level ...
Fantastic review of 2 gorgeous gorgeous pieces!
What happens when the split difference exceeds 1 minute? Does the user have to remember/record the minute manually?
Yes! You will have to know in which minute you stopped the split-second hand...
Nice one Alexander, pls also review the salmon dial. That’s a beauty at another level I believe. Thanks p
The Datora is in the pipeline…
@@WatchAdvisor thanks my friend…
The rose gold version is wonderful--would use the rattrapante feature to time the trains in zürch!
He he, good idea ... playing with your watch ... that's absolutely what we should do ... 😉
I loved this release when it was announced and I only trust Alexander to properly beeakdown this watch 👏
What a joy to read this ... thank you very much! Love your comment 😉
The stainless steel in BLUE, Alexander, was that made for you 🤔😂. Nice complication, lovely waches 👍.
Of course! I have to admit that split-second chronograph with the blue dial rocks! 🤩
This line is the smartest release from Brietling under the new leadership
Back to the roots... 😉 I just wrote this comment twice ... Allow me copy and paste it here again... Georges Kern is finally resurrecting the brand's past ... the former owner - the Schneider family - was ignoring it ...
Very good, Alexander - but watch out for those trains! I love a doppel! Maybe my favourite complication. Great to see Breitling producing these at an affordable level. Of course, a module and a little thick, but at this price... Only Habring2 was making this complication at an affordable level. To my mind, these movements raise Breitling up, perhaps starting to encroach on JLC territory (!). Interesting it marks Breitling out as a manufacturer competing at diverse 'entry luxury' and 'entry high horology' levels. I do like to see a brand innovating and producing beautiful watches at a fair price, as indeed SWATCH are. In contrast to some (ahem, Richemont...)
The split-second chronograph offered for an attractive price, yes. The split-second function is in fact a modular (patented) construction with only 28 components being placed between the main-plate and date wheel and therefore is not visible through the case-back. The base calibre is the Breitling B01 and I consider it to be superior to the ETA base caliber Habring is using...
James, I agree about the Habring which is half the price of this one, and seems to me a better movement, though I haven't had them both in hand to compare (yet...). See my comments on the Habring A11R vs Breitling B15 elsewhere. Of course the biggest downside of the Doppel-Felix is they're only making 20 pieces per year and there's a long waiting list, but such is the price of exclusivity. Richard Habring could probably charge 5 times the price and sell just as many watches, but he doesn't seem to be in it for the money - I even felt embarrassed paying so little for one.
@@davidjb3671 Agree - I'm a huge fan of Habring. I too wear my Chrono Felix and have to pinch myself! I think they are quite different to these Breitlings in many ways, but I'm just glad to see one of the Big Boys doing something to do with watch-making, not simply luxury marketing...
I don't think you can compare the chronographs ... IMHO it is like comparing apples and pears ....
@@WatchAdvisor In what respect are they so different - it's more like comparing a supermarket apple with a heritage apple from a local orchard? I've no idea why you're so averse to the comparison, since in terms of appearance, functionality and price point these seem the closest pair of split seconds chronographs. But I guess as a mass market brand you probably feel the Breitling is more important. Nvm, I won't pursue this any further since you're clearly not inclined to consider the Habring. Pity though.
Many thanks for the awesome videos. Have you done a review for the B25 Datora 42. Best releases from Breitling. They must have engaged the right person for the design this time.
Yes, we have... video is in the pipeline...
Richard, I agree the Datora in steel with salmon dial looks fantastic. Watch out Patek 5270P, and you can buy a nice lump of platinum for the $175K difference in price! 😄
Nice time piece (mooie uurwerk)
Thanks for sharing our passion!
Nice🔥
Which one is your favorite?
@@WatchAdvisor 👉🏼
Tried one of these on before not to thick just right particularly the open back
Which one did you try?
Looks like a B01 movement with the automatic winding mechanism removed and a split seconds module added. Nice alignment of the pushers and the crown. Any idea if the split seconds module is cam or columnwheel?
It is in fact a modular construction (28 components) being placed between the main-plate and date wheel and is not visible through the case-back.
@@WatchAdvisor it isn't visibile., but the B15 Rattrapante mechanism is controlled by a colums wheel
How big are your wrists? I have 6 inch wrists and Im wondering if that giant clasp would hurt since it would be on the side of my wrist and not on the bottom.
17 cm / 6,7 in
Hello, I have the Premier B15 Duograph 42 and was wondering can I run the stop watch function as a minute hand 24/7 ? The reason why I ask is I watched a video review of the premier B09 chronograph 40 and in the video the gentlemen said...
"It is a manual wind with no date. It is a very clean dial.
You note that the watch features smooth chronograph engagement thanks to the use of a vertical clutch.
There's no additional wear or tear in this system so in addition to seamless jump free actuation a vertical clutch allows you to keep the chronograph running full time with no additional hazard to the watch."
Is this true as no damage would be done internally if I ran my stop watch all the time? Can you help me answer that for me please. Thank you very much.
Yes, this is the truth! No worries when keeping the chronograph running all the time..
Thank you! @@WatchAdvisor
Is the first time I see this complication of the split second, and that answers my question of how in the past the lap time in racing was read without 2 chronographs, or at least that is how I suppose it was.
The new and patented way Breitling has technically realized it is smart... it is a module construction with only 28 parts. Normally a split second chronograph is much more expensive and complicated to be realized...
That is one thick watch
No! I disagree... try this chronograph on your wrist... and you will see & feel it is not too thick ...
@@WatchAdvisor Alexander can you ship one to me for review? I promise to return it. Lol
Yummy chocolate slab, even more delightful then the Marinemaster 300 from Seiko. Thicccc boois.This is what they dont show in the press releases. hehe.
What exactly didn't Breitling show?
@@WatchAdvisor honestly, just the way it wears on the wrist. Many of the images make it seem like thickness was not a major factor or tried to hide thickness. I have worn this in person, this is one thick watch. Thicker then a marinemaster 300, one of the most thickest divers on the market, and that wears thinner because of case design. Would personally never wear this new duograph.
Beautiful but very very thick watch. Won't go under my cuff
That exercise might be difficult - agreed!
How would you rate this against the JLC Polaris Chronograph?
I love Breitling I have Five but Breitling isn't in JLCs league.imho
The JLC Polaris defines more the entry price level of JLC... in this case you may compare it with Breitling ... When it gets more sophisticated at JLC I wouldn't compare the brands anymore ...
How would one justify the price difference for the rose gold version?
You can’t really justify the price difference… it is was it is and always was …
In blue but 40mm and max 13mm please 🙂
You need to try the Duograph on your wrist!!! I am sure you will like it... Give it a try!
The blue one is a beautiful piece but too thick to me.
Did you already try it on your wrist?
Love it but just too thick.
You have to try the watches on your wrist, only then you will know...
Nice dial, but way too thick. The similar Habring2 Doppel-Felix is only 13mm thick and less expensive. Please visit them when you get back to Austria.
The split-second function is in fact a modular (patented) construction with only 28 components being placed between the main-plate and date wheel and therefore is not visible through the case-back. The base calibre is the Breitling B01 and I consider it to be superior to the ETA base caliber Habring is using... So I don't think you should compare these watches...
@@WatchAdvisor Though the Habring A11R is based on the Valjoux 7750 it's been substantially modified over the past 10 years and now has few parts in common, plus it's significantly thinner. The chronograph operation and dial layout is entirely different to the 7750, and it's a revised and improved version of the split-seconds movement Richard Habring designed for IWC (still in use there) which sells at twice the price. Its only downside is the rather plain decoration, but as an integrated chronograph movement I believe most people would consider it superior to the modular B15, and that also explains why it's thinner. Please support your local Austrian watchmakers!
Again, I would not compare these chronographs! Different approach and base-calibre... I know Maria and Richard Habring for decades, I have been and I am supporting them ...
While Habring is "pimping" an "average", mass manufactured chronograph calibre with his delicate split-second mechanism, Breitling is "downgrading" one of the very best chronograph calibres of today with a (smart) modular split-second mechanism ...
The Breitling movement is superior: column wheel, manufactured, 70 hours of power reserve. The doppel felix is very good but its autonomy remains much lower, it uses a cam and uses a lot of parts from the 7750, the main advantage of the doppel felix is its thickness. The 7750 is a very good movement but it is still a mass-produced movement and the Breitling dial is higher by range than that of doppel felix.
Sorry Alex but once again no Sea Anchor ⚓ wtf is wrong with Breitling
This is the new Breitling my friend, no one was buying the old Breitling anymore. This the future also why an anchor on a watch that isn't a diver.
@@robertsullivan4773 Makes me nostalgic I suppose. My Colt GMT never had it, always hated that. But at least I have an Airwolf that does. A dying breed...
@@albertbremner8173 Hey I have the wings and the ⚓ on my 25 year old Chrono cockpit. I know what you mean. I love that it has them. I also love the brand I have five but I want Breitling to thrive and for that they have to change. Personally I'm concerned about their new 44mm Chronomats. They are getting big again. Beautiful but big too big for my 16cm wrist.
@@robertsullivan4773 I feel I can't complain about the 44s mate...the Airwolf I mentioned is a 44mm. And the most painful thing about it is the turbofan case back.... really digs into you ⚓⚓⚓
In blue but 40mm and max 13mm please 🙂
So you basically want the Permier B09 Chronograph 40. The one with the pistachio dial is awesome.
@@JerehmiaBoaz get you. kind of. Swap the pea soup dial for the blue for the win
@@almcl9391 well I'm not crazy about the pistachio dial I wouldn't call it pea soup either.
