Post subject: | My new B1 |
Hi, I was going to post this a little earlier, but have been very busy with work, so it's taken a little longer than expected. After a visit to Andrew Michaels, I came face to face with a very nice brand new B1, which must be one of the last new ones kicking around. I was intending to get a Bell & Ross, but decided on the B1 instead, mainly due to the fact I was a little worried about the 'staying power' of the B&R, and whether it would be as attractive to me in 5 years time. Looking back now, I am very glad to have got the B1, a very versatile watch which looks great in all situations. It has taken up place alongside my B2 and SuperOcean. I have improved with my picture taking, however still a very long way to go to get some of the shots that you guys take! On a slightly different note, what do you guys think of the strap for the SuperOcean?? I got an Ocean Racer for the B1, and thought that it might be different to get a strap made to swap around with the rubber. It makes use of the deployant part, and is very comfy on the buffalo. I know some people will scoff, but at least I get more use and variety out of something, and means I can use it on all of my Breitlings! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks for looking Ash |

Nice trinity! But the B2 is my favourite by a mile. The older model B2 like yours is great - probably the most busy watch you'll EVER see! Great stuff..... and much better looking IMO than the later B2 model. (Sorry to all you later model B2 owners out there). |

Wow, a B-1 this late in the game. Quite a find there mate ![]() Not keen on the strap for the SuperOcean. Looks too thin by Breitling standards and IMO the corse grain doesn't go too well on a 'diver' watch. As long as you like it though is all that counts ![]() |
