How About Buy A Cheap Replica Breitling Colt Skyracer Watch?

The watch industry is facing tough times, and offering more affordable pieces that present a real value proposition for buyers is an obvious way to reach a larger market. For mainstream luxury brands like Breitling, this means more bang-for-buck pieces like the new Colt Skyracer that we have here. In covering the release of the Breitling Colt Skyracer here, we said that it has an “extremely reasonable price" at around $2,000. That's maybe not quite a steal, but the Breitling Colt Skyracer is a solid, sporty watch for those looking for Breitling quality and brand identity and who are open to the idea of high-end quartz movements.

Like most other watches from the brand, the Breitling Colt Skyracer is big, bold, and brash. And that is fitting because this watch is, beyond everything else, a tool watch. It measures 45mm wide and is 13.5mm thick. However, the cool thing about it is that it comes in a black carbon composite case. Breilting calls this carbon material Breitlight, and it is very strong and light. To give you an idea of how light it is, consider this fact: it is 3.3 times lighter than titanium. That is pretty incredible.

Breitlight also has other useful properties. It has “exceptional resistance” to scratches, corrosion, and it is also non-magnetic and hypoallergenic. In press photos, the Breitlight case looks almost like forged carbon, but in the flesh, we think it more resembles the look of typical DLC finishes. The case is water resistant to 100m and it also has a unidirectional bezel, which can be used for timing events. The bezel features four raised tabs, which makes it easy to operate even if you are wearing gloves.

The dial's clever use of font and arrangement keeps all the information highly legible, even with the all the digits on the dial. The Breitling Colt Skyracer dial has a matte black finish marked by large Arabic numeral hour markers. The large hour markers are actually painted on the dial, but done so with a shadow effect that gives the markers the illusion of depth. It also prevents the dial from looking too flat and uninteresting.

Making busy dials highly legible is actually something of a Breitling specialty, and we have seen them achieve this feat over and over again, on their Navitimers especially, and that is no different for the Breitling Colt Skyracer. This is one highly legible watch, which is exactly what a tool watch should be.

All things considered, there is a whole lot to like about the Breitling  Colt Skyracer replica watch. It has a no-nonsense design, a light and strong case featuring an interesting new material, adequate water-resistance, a highly legible dial, a unique strap that doubles up as a ruler, and it is equipped with a highly accurate SuperQuartz movement. Watch traditionalists are going to balk at the idea of a quartz movement, but hey, this isn’t any ordinary quartz movement. Plus, it helps keeps prices down too and if you're a younger watch buyer who dreads the cost of servicing a mechanical movement then there's a lot of appeal here.
