In video time 6:10 the the watch is showing time 7min past 3.
But the hour hand is still little upper (not reaching 3 even).
How is that possible?

I love Breitling Professional watches. Well done review.

I think this looks fantastic, my preference is for the black strap. I like the idea of a thermo compensated super quartz over a mechanical watch. I wish more watch makes did this. Longines used to have a line of VHP quartz watches but it seems like it's been discontinued.

My only criticism is the 2 yr battery life that will be even less as you said, if you use the functions of the watch. I think for this price, the battery life should be much longer.

Great review. I bought the B70 two months ago. Love it, except I already sent it to Breitling Service. The hour hand is losing time, about a minute per day and the countdown timer/alarm beeper is barely audible, making that function useless. Very disappointed with Breitling. They have a problem with the B70 caibre. Evaluation by Breitling Service supposedly takes two weeks. Hopefully, I will hear something by June 21, 2024. Stay tune. Btw, I have two Aerospace Evo’s (one is Evo Night Mission limited edition w/yellow dial) and love them!

Nice video!
Throughout this video the problematic misalignment of the hour hand to the minute hand can be seen. From what I have read, this is a widespread issue with this new calibre, and even after service the problem often returns. Which means that Breitling doesn't yet have a proper fix for it. Really sad that the current buyers are essentially beta testers paying $5, 000 for the privilege.

Der Preis und dann ohne Sekundenzeiger???

Nice video with an apt judgement. Operating quartz watches with batteries is outdated technology. It's a shame, because I actually really like this watch. I had the predecessor. The battery lasted at least 4 years.

I am not a rich guy and I bought one anyway! I am not going on any rugged adventures, either!
