Hey Everyone,

I'm new to this forum but have posted on TZ a bunch and have been a Breitling fan for many years. I own a classic Blackbird and recently picked up a mint B-1 Super-Quartz that I'd like to share with you all. I really, really like this watch! Its accuracy is amazing and it’s very versatile. The previous owner bought it in Dec 07 and had it for only a few months before he decided to sell to finance another watch. His loss is my lucky gain. Here it is:

I replaced the stainless steel bracelet with a Di-Modell carbon fiber strap and deployant band. It was all a little to shiny for my taste.

You all have a great forum...I'll be talking to you all soon.

Carlos

:welcome: I have to say, as a rule I'm not a fan of non-original straps, BUT that carbon fibre strap looks the absolute business on the B-1! Very much in keeping with the B-1's high tech look. Very nice indeed. :thumbsup:

Hi Carlos and Welcome

Nice watch and interesting strap - am just waiting for a B-1 to be delivered (not the superquartz & a blue face). I'll be experimenting with a blue shark strap (courtesy of doctor diesel) and a blue galuchat strap. Can't wait.

Enjoy the forum - it's really good here!

Welcome aboard! A brilliant watch, I'm on the look out for a B1 myself at the moment. The strap is a brilliant addition to the watch. Di-Modell really do brilliant straps at a great price!
