Does anyone know where I can find pictures of the Caliber 44 movement? I'm just interested in knowing what the inside of my BB looks like. Closest I can find is an article on the ETA base movement, which some people may find interesting: http://www.chronometrie.com/eta2892/eta2892.html But I really want to see Breitling's effort. Thanks in advance! |

Thanks in advance! It will look like this - http://www.breitlingsource.com/details/B44B.html The B44B is identical to the B44.... just the name of it when it's put in a Bentley model. |

To be pedantic (as is my wont)........ While the B44 will look like the B44B, there are a few differences in the tolerances of parts that Breitling replace. |

Is one a better movement than the other? |

I would describe the Bentley version as more refined - it's produced to tighter tolerances in order to partially justify the jump in price, but it's difficult to say that it's 'better' - the differences are not really tangible in any practical sense. They are both COSC movements. |
