Thanks guyz, can't wait for that bad boy to hit these shores!

Roff, thanks for the advice you were correct! Can't believe that for the last few months the only pictures of that bloody watch I could find anywhere on this planet was the Breitling promotional ones. Then at the same time as I decided to go for it two fellow members posted their pics!!!!!! Cheers guyz you helped to seal the deal, another one up for Breitling Source a great place to come.

Omega 21 & Alex - Thanks for the pics, they were the clincher! We also need to get that logo sorted, ha, the three musketeers!!

Alex - Thanks for sending the extra images, the phone calls and for speaking to Andrew, more than what was required and you don't even know me from Adam, maybe things may work out next time..... Another great thing about this site, members willing to go that bit further for a fellow follower. :lingsrock: :D :D .

Anyway enough of that.......Fedex get your arses in gear!! :D

Cheers

Andrew

Congrats, it's a beautiful piece. I tried one on a couple a weeks ago and really liked it.

I want to go and take another look but I'm afraid of what might happen.

Can anyone help me with this question? Received SOHC 125LE for xmas & despite the instructions saying the watch has the function to 'quick change' the date, it won't, & I've been told by Breitling UK the watch DOESN'T actually have it so the only way to change it is to do it manually!?

Would be interested to know if anyone else out there has experienced the same issue or wheter I'm just been fed a line.

SOHC uses caliber 13 which does have a quick set date. Unscrew the crown and then pull the crown out to the first position and it should change only the date.

Do not do that between 8pm and 3am

Thanks for the info, but the 125th Ann LE model uses calibre 23 so can you tell me if the same applies?
