Hi all, Breitling newbie here, Just got my first Breitling, an SS B01, Just love it. Have a 1680 sub that I've worn for 35 years, never thought I'd cheat :)

Great forum, lots of information for a new owner.

Cheers!

Congrats on your first Breitling. 35 years a long wait!

But if anyone's in doubt as to the longevity of the Submariner, 35 years service should put their minds at ease. I really hope the B01 is just as long-lived.
