While at the NYC Boutique today also had the opportunity to view the new Breitling B60, 45mm titanium case with bracelet and quartz movement!

I like the black eye blue dial but I'm not crazy about the cut off numbers. I always thought they should bring back the old titanium chrono avenger but I'm not sure why they didn't make this an automatic.

Don't like to something else a bit negative, but does anyone else think the endlinks look a poor fit?

The sales manager did mention that the bracelet was something that was subject to future change. The watch was part of a show that was displaying new Basel releases and watches that were going to be released in the future!

Like the dial colors and legible hands on sub-dials on this one, 45mm just too large though, :( .

Meh!

Another spin off of the SQ caliber 73. Nothing to see here. Much prefer the Colt Quartz chrono.

Outside of the Professional line, it's not clear to me why Breitling is even in the quartz game to begin with.

Why not?

Perhaps my remark was a tad ill-considered. I guess there's nothing wrong with having a high-end quartz presence in the line-up. For me, though -- I don't react favorably to the dial layout on the quartz chronos, so they have always left me with the impression that they are the "odd man out" in the context of how I tend to perceive the brand as a whole. The quartz aspect just adds to this perception for me. No disrespect intended to fans of these watches -- just my own view. :)

I would like to see the other dial colours, that looks a tad drab for my taste.

Very fair points, just curious!
