Odd as it might sound, I really like the looks of it. Could be because it looks so much better than the Chronomats from the last two decades.
The panda version (pictured in the original post) seems like the best of the new model - the inverse panda is a bit idiotic, as some genius thought it fit to use pale silver hands on pale silver subdials, making the bloody thing even less legible than the registers on the Daytona.
I always hope for the best. Experience, unfortunately, has taught me to expect the worst.

Now that one I could live with very easily !! Love that bracelet and who really needs to be able to see what time it is anyway.

 That's a beauty! I love everything about it but the crown.

It's for making orange juice from tiny little oranges.

Looking forward to your purchase and review.



Oh, and here is another one of those Breitling citrus crowns and so far no ridicule from the unwashed (though they could be laughing at me behind my back)
