This Breitling for Bentley B06 Midnight Carbon is the latest version of the Bentley B06 series. It is a kind of black. Very black. And it is a kind of big. Very big.

Let’s talk about the size first. No one will ever miss that you are wearing a watch. It has a diameter of 49 millimeters so you have to have a firm wrist (and some muscles) to make it look good on yourself. Breitling wants to keep up with the current trends of black watches, the reason why they have launched a whole range of black time pieces.

Both the satin-brushed steel case and the bezel – with a knurled motif inspired by a Bentley radiator grille – are coated with a black high-resistance carbon-based treatment. The dial has a sort of off-black background which Breitling calls mother-of-pearl. As sort of blue we think. It contrasts with the matt counters and red and white indications. It looks sinister and cool at the same time.

Inside is the Manufacture Breitling caliber B06 like in all other B06 models. It ensures an extremely accurate 1/8th of a second time reading. And it has a firm power-reserve of 70 hours. Very useful. The model is limited to 500 pieces and if you don’t like black, just buy one of the other B06 models. Just make sure your wrist is big enough.
