Ever since laying eyes on this beauty and realizing that these HEQ movements are just as interesting if not more so than their balance sprung counterparts, I've officialy become a Superquartz convert.

I am astonished with the accuracy of this piece. Been tracking it since I picked it up from the AD 2 weeks ago and it has not gained or lost a second.

It's quite liberating not having to worry about power reserve or having to wind and adjust the date, if it hasn't been worn for a few days.

Breitling has a real winnder here...tank like SS case(45.4mm x 18mm), chrono which is functional down to 1000M, Superquartz accuracy and durability, outstanding build quality.

I have to say that I am becoming quite a fan of the stencil numbers. 8)
Nice pick up!

Nice one. I know what you mean about the simplicity of living with SQ. I recently picked up a Chrono Avenger M1, which was the same watch in Ti. Mine is spot on after almost 3 weeks.

I also like that you can adjust the hour without stopping the second hand.
