BREITLING INTRODUCES A LIMITED EDITION SUPEROCEAN HERITAGE FOR THE AMERICAN MARKET WITH A GREEN DIAL​

SHARE THIS STORY:

Readers, I’ll level with you: at long last, I’m running out of ways to discuss the green watch thing. We might be past the point that we can legitimately call it a trend – green dials might have penetrated to the point that they’ve just become another standard dial color. You’d be hard pressed to think of a brand that hasn’t flirted with green in the last two years, and it’s fair to say that the novelty of green being an unusual color for a watch dial has worn off considerably. That’s not to say that it doesn’t still have an immense appeal (I love my green dialed Grand Seiko), but utilizing the color as a differentiator or something unique or special doesn’t have the same impact that it did a year ago. That brings us to the Breitling Superocean Heritage B01 Chronograph Limited Edition, which is a large hunk of metal indeed, and clad in a “black eye” green dial. It’s also black coated and limited to 250 pieces. Oh yeah, and it’s a US exclusive.

 
Nice... but is it worth dropping $9250 for it just because it had a green dial and is a LE piece? I think not...
What you're really paying for is the upcharge for the DLC. Not saying its worth it but that's their pricing scheme. An SOH II with the BO1 in house movement on strap in SS is a little more that $7600, they pretty much add $1500 across the board for DLC pieces.
