I have the black SOH46 and the white LE SOHC. I am delighted with both. I have reserved with my AD the LE green bezel coming out in a month or two.

The black looks great on an OR deployment or Diver Pro II deployment. Black calf makes for a good look as well. The mesh bracelet seems to be a "love it or hate it." I love it.

Left out beside the look, the watch just sits perfectly on the wrist due to the shape of the case, more shallow case back, and dramatically down sloping lugs. It's one damn comfortable watch.

I agree with all the above, the LE is a great watch and a nice fit too wether on the bracelet or an OR! Go for it!.

Cheers

I have the SOH in black. Its a very tame everyday watch. The wife likes it 10x better then my SA. It goes great with a suit or a pair of shorts and a polo. I prefer the big watches this is borderline for me. Definetly a keeper for daily use.

Breitling SOH 46

I had the SOHC bronze on mesh and really enjoyed it. It had a classic vibe that I really liked. One thing that bugged me was that it felt like a desk diver, in the sense that it was never intended to be a true dive watch... as evidenced by the lack of a luminous PIP on the bezel, no diver's extension, and no lume on the running second hand. I know, most of us don't dive, me included, but it bothered me a little that they left out these details. Otherwise it was a great watch, comfortable, nice size without being silly big, and very clear and easy to read dial. The hour hand is particularly beautiful.

I have the SOH 46 bronze on bronze Ocean Racer band.
My only complaint is the Ocean Racer ratcheting clasp....(I've posted a write-up on it).........it frequently skips a tooth, and loosens while you're wearing it, because there's an inherent design flaw, where the folding clasp portion depresses the PUSH button, and allows the clasp to skip to a new tooth location.
I sent it back, and they only removed a very small amount of material on one edge of the PUSH button (basically made a chamfer on it), yet it still didn't solve the problem.
Maybe eventually, I'll spring for the mesh band......

I have the OR on deployment and 2 Diver Pro IIs on deloyment and not a single problem. Sorry about yours.

I have the SOHC on Black Croc and absolutely love it..... Have always loved Breitlings and would often like most be found with my noise pressed against an AD window!!!

When I first saw the SOH black on the mesh I absolutely feel in love with it.... It's the classic clean lines and retro feel to it.

Thanks to Pete on here I was able to get the SOHC and often find mumysrlf just staring at it.... It's gorgeous!!!

Go for it.... Nothing beats the first moment wjen you see it gleaming in the box
