Breitling Colt GMT+

I have worn only Rolex watches since 1971, but when I went to my AD a few weeks ago to see the "new" Rolex collection, there was nothing that floated my boat.

The Breitling Colt GMT+ interests me. It seems to combine the functionality of the Explorer II and the Submariner.

Any comments about this particular Breitling model?

I don't know much about the model, but on a recent trip I noticed
while watch browsing (of course) there were alot more people
Breitling impressed than Rolex. Don't get me wrong I live Rolex
just stating an observation. Breitling is becoming alot more
popular lately....just my 2€

I tried a few times to buy a Brietling because of the good reviews and they look nice on pictures but the high polish finish and to a lesser extent the slanted bracelet links are a turn off for me.

I have a colt automatic II (a17380, not the GMT version), and must say that I'm very impressed by the build quality. The bracelet (professional II) is the most comfortable bracelet I've ever worn!
