Post subject:  Finally I got my B50

Hi All,

Yesterday was the big day for me. I took a day off from work and headed towards Wim's shop in Bruges. My brand new Breitling Professional Cockpit B50 was waiting there for me. Wim told me about the functions on the watch, the bracelet was resized for my wrist and we had a general chat about watches and cars :lol:
So now I finally have my first :lingsrock: and I just start smiling every time I look at it :D

During the drive home it got dark outside which gave me a good opportunity to test the backlight and it's really great. In my experience this usually the weak point of most watches, but definitely not on the B50 8) I also tried to make a picture of it with the backlight on but somehow that didn't work out.

Of course a topic like this is not complete without a wrist-shot, so here it is:

Thanks.

I've been wearing it for a few days now, and I'm really surprised by how comfortable it is despite it's size.
Is there any interest here if I try to collect some information and write a review about it ? Of course I'm a bit biased, but I haven't seen much reviews here about the B50.

Absolutely! Would appreciate it.

I'm of course trying all the features on my watch now, and I do have question about the flight timer (CHRFLGT):
I can record times, view them again and erase them, that's all no problem. However, there should be an option to erase all the times at once. According to the manual I should pull the crown, press P2 for a long time and then it's done.
On my B50 when I pull the crown I get two options, "time" and "utc", pressing any button only gives me "nop" on the upper screen.

Am I doing something wrong ?

Does anyone else experience the same issue as I am ?
