No, I don't think I'll be beating down the AD's door for that one.

Hey all, just got up close with a 125e Anniversarie in Red Gold!! Anyone else think this is one of the worst things to come out of the Breitling factory?? (See attached picture) |

I'm sorry to say....but they blew it with that bracelet. Looks like some sort of bangle bracelet my mom would've owned in the late 80's. Very silly. |

you know its not that i hate the look of the bracelet but as a guy i like a nice chunky feeling bracelet and it almost looks like this bracelet would feel kind of girly..like the holes are too big and there is too much material missing |

| Has Breitling lost their mind!? The face is great, A+ The design is great, A+ The size is alright, B+ The band, well lets not even go there... |

Ive been defending all of the new models, but this one does look a bit strange. Ill reserve judgment until I see some nicer pics, wristshots, or one in the flesh... but yeah, odd looking. |

Just added two new pictures above, one of them is the clasp side of the bracelet. |

I can only echo the previous comments. The head is way too "ordinary" for a celebratory 125th Anniversay piece in my opinion. Too small, no B01 movement, just..... well..... a bit dull really. And as for that bracelet! Utterly utterly hideous in all respects. I wondered how they'd deal with the sizing issue as the parts near the head or rigid......... and yep they dealt with it exactly as I thought they would - with grim looking flexible links that a) look nothing like the rigid parts of the bracelet, and b) look nothing like anything Breitling has made before.
