I recently (Jan 2019), purchased a new Superocean H2 42mm from a Breitling store in Houston. I had seen them on the web for 3,800.00,usd. The salesmen made a good case for a store purchase ie fakes, warranty, etc. No second thoughts with a 10% discount & 5-yr int'l warranty, particularly at this price point. The watch was registered before I left the store. Interestingly though the salesman suggested when I adjust the date to do so with both hands BELOW the 3 and 9 dial numerals, as there have been issues reported with the stem breaking or something. There is nothing in the manual about this method. Since this is a Tudor sourced MT5612 movement modified to the B20 used by Breitling is it possible there may be owners who have experienced this? If anyone is aware of a B20 date setting issue on the new SOH I would welcome any reply. We self-report in the airline business. Not sure about watchmakers. I am thrilled with the watch, just detail oriented. Sorry for the length … |

This is reasonable advice for any watch with a quick set date, although it is a little risk averse as the danger range is probably much smaller than that. |

Congrats on the new watch! Can't help on the date issue but would love to see some pictures of the new addition. |

there are no specific issues w/ the quickset date on the manufacture Tudor movement I am aware of, this is "general advice", as some calibers have that restriction. |
