New Breitlings have a sticker on the back with the reference etc nos on them, but last of all a date, eg Oct 2011 in the bottom picture here:

It's not the date of manufacture (as I've seen some dated 2014 etc) so what is it? Thanks.

Considering that's a superquartz could it be a projected life expectancy date for the battery.. Change before (in this case) oct 2011 if not sold yet.. considering you've seen some saying 2014, and it's 2012, 2 years is a pretty average life expectancy for a watch battery.. That'd be my guess..

Thanks ckabin. I was wondering along those lines; or whether perhaps it was a first-service due date.
