4 month update… I absolutely LOVE this watch, but had to take it back for service… it was about 2 minutes off per month..!! The owner at the jewelers I went to was super nice and all over it… it’s now on the way back to Breitling where I’m hopeful that they’ll fix it…
Great review on this incredible Breitling GMT/Chrono. Thanks for going into detail on the setting features. Hope your doing okay Rob, you and your family have a great new year.
While passing 10 o'clock the chronograph second hand jerks horribly which also common in new Tudor Chronograph. It does not have the smooth sweep second like Valjoux 7750. Breitling should attend this flaw.
It's a beautiful watch. I have a friend with a 6.5" wrist that would wear that, but it's obviously aimed at larger wristed people. The price would be more of a deterrent than the size.
Definitely a large watch, depending on my mood I will wear what I call my big boy watches ( 44mm + ) but mostly wear 38mm to 41mm. If I was to spend $10,000 on a chronograph I would definitely be going for a speedy. Happy New Year Rob……. Now I need to go and make my first watch review for 2022.
Thanks for showing off this Breitling beast. The more complications is where quartz really shines. You can find lots of gmt chronographs for under $500
Beautiful watch, but it's a behemoth in both size and price! lol The P-51 Mustang was always one of my favorite places from that era, so it is appearing to me for that reason. Happy New Year, Rob! 🍻
I just bought the same watch except I got the vought corsair model and my winder feels almost gritty. It wasn't as smooth as I anticipated. I'm reading this is normal for the b04s? Or maybe it's just wound all the way already so it's tight. What are your thoughts
Back to their old antics! The brand seem to have a resurgence recently, What’s the size of this watch tells me they’re going backwards! It’s the size of a desk clock…
I guess if you like the design the 1953 re edition is the way to go. PLUS the much more wearable size at 43. But again you loose the cool GMT... Don't know why Breitling can't make them smaller.
Date complication doesn't have a lot going on for this model. The AR showed some blue tinting. I'm knot impressed with the lume as much as other lower priced models. This beast misses on points that will succumb to any competition of that caliber.

How’s the accuracy now?
Isn't that within cosc standards.
Jesus 2 min off is good for an auto

Very nice watch, but the logo looks naff without the wings - especially on a pilot's watch. Very cool, thanks Rob 👍👍
Bought it! And its brother the blue F4U Corsair! Love them both!
Beautiful. Nice videography too. Perfect size too. :)

Beautiful and no bigger than a Duro.
Great job 👏 👍 on the video. Thanks 😊
41mm would be awesome, it’s a big boy!

Oddly Breitling have a superquartz movement albeit alot of money but not this kind of money.
@@glennpowell3444 Is that the Aerospace, I like that watch and it doesn’t cost 10k
@@MrBacchus18 Thats the one.
Any examples of quartz GMT chronographs? Would love one
@@benstorr6704 I was specifically thinking of the Hamilton X-wind but there are others I think like Hemel.
Beautiful watch. I dig it! 👍
I love Breitlings!

Beautiful Breitling. 42 or 44mm would be great.

Stunning 😎
Nice review Rob! That’s a cool watch!
Cool looking watch! Heavy price tag.
Nice looking watch but way to large for my personal taste. They nailed it with the AVI-756 re-edition though.
Nice watch but its massive 😁
16.3? Dayum

couldn't you just quickset the date by flipping the hour hand back & forth at midnight?
Well that’s no fun! 🤣
Does this chrono only times 30 mins at most?
It does 30 minutes on the 3pm subdial, and then up to 12 hours on the 6pm subdial.

What does this thing have to do with an airplane like a P-51 mustang?.....Marketing gimmick.
I can forgive the 45mm case… BUT NOT the 24mm lug width! Which person at Breitling made the ridiculous decision, how rubbish!
Too big...😒!
That is what she said.
I don’t linke Breitling. They’ve got a good movement and put that in a bunch of ugly watches for a lot of money.
Another ugly over priced Swiss watch. George Kern is blowing it.
