Was looking forward to this release...and as many am disappointed!
I don't understand the hands and the date...but the hands just looks terrible here (sorry)
I never realized these hands were used on original Type XX’s
Now, this makes more sense. But again, that date!
The finesse of the main hands matches that of the hand of the 15-minute sub-dial. (That said, the latter often doesn't return exactly to zero.)
Yes, the winner of this release is definitely Breitling! G. Kern will open a Dom Perrignon… 🤩
Actually I like it! At least the one with the 3 registers… 👍🏻 But yes, if date, why not leave it at 6??? 🙈
The hands are „nice“, because they are „different“! Also the case and the proportions are great!
But too big! Max 40, they should have been.
The price, well… 🤦🏻♂️
And the green lume is a joke! 🙈
However, it has potential… I believe, they will bring a no-date version probably next year, it certainly will come!
But, for myself - I keep being happy with my Ref 3820 - even with date… 😁
The new models are FANTASTIC: horrible hands, fake tritium & dreadful date. They make my 3800 Aeronavale (with real, beautifully ageing tritium) look EVEN BETTER than it did before, which was & is SUPERB!
I’m curious to learn more about the movement.
According to SJX, it isn’t the same as the Blancpain F385. A new chronograph from Lemania/Manufacture Breguet is cool. The lack of a jumping minutes is interesting, I wonder if it’s a revision of an existing movement or something brand new.
Calling April 1st, calling April 1st...
One can only laugh. What an absolute miss. The date alone is a deal-killer. WTF?
It is a No for me. Even without the date, somehow the overall dial layout is lack of harmony.
Unlike others I don't find the new releases to be terrible, but at the same time - why mess up perfection when you already have it?
Only watch 2019
In agreement.
I was expecting something like the Only Watch. Guess it was just wishful thinking.
42 mm is so 2014🫠
They can do it and still they don’t. I’m on my way to the Breguet reception in Bourget Airport. Let’s see what they have to say to the community’s ice cold reception, if anything.

I'm less eager to go to the reception in Le Bourget now but I will, for the nice lunch and the gifts, indeed to hear what the team says about the comments of the fans. Also want to know what will come next, which could somewhat correct some of the design flaws
Cool. Looking forward to see you.
I’ll be wearing this guy, green jqcket qnd green Jordan 1s
Is this for real 🤣
Big miss. I mean the hands , the date (a date that cuts into the Arabics 😅😭), it just doesn't work. Too bad I was hoping they would knock it out of the park to get Breguet some attention and buzz.
I admire Breguet as a brand that CAN make beautiful watches, but .....
can't warm up to this one.
Hands, I can deal with. Lume I can deal with. Size, I like big watches so 42mm is good for me.
One thing that I dislike on watches are dates/date windows.
They usually are eyesores on beautifully designed watch dials.
But this, the date location and chopped off "5", are totally poor design IMO.
Sorry to see Breguet release this one.
Jeeeepers
Just looking at the subdial placement, what is this, 55mm? All the proportions look way off.
No need to comment on the date, everyone else has already!

Breguet’s Code 59…
Terribly done.
The oversized subdial at 3 o’clock eating into the numerals and the hands are most irritating.
Case size and pricing don’t make it better.
Maybe a ladies version, Breguet?
38mm with no date and no diamond too.
I will be first in the queue to get it.
Maybe Mark Hayek has a debilitating and company crushing obsession with dates, he won't produce a no date Fifty Fathoms either.
Need to see it in the metal, but I sadly have no rush to do so. This could have been so great…
Given the overwhelming negative reception, Breguet could not be this clueless, right?
Could this be a New Coke head-fake?
How could Breguet's designers and any focus group miss this?
Is this Swatch erecting its middle finger to enthusiasts, believing that there is a group of unknowing rubes who will nevertheless go for this model?
