Congratulations! It looks like my second Breitling, a SuperOcean that I purchased in 1997. It was on my wrist every day for over 10 years, and eventually the PRO I bracelet had to be replaced. I traded that watch last year, when I got an AS Blacksteel, but now that I see the pic you posted, I wish I had kept it. I sold the Blacksteel as well, but the SuperOcean would have meant more to me. That is such a classic! Great to see it on the original PRO bracelet as well! Hope you wear it for many years, with great pleasure! Cheers, Carl ps Can't quite tell from the photo...is it a blue dial or black? I should also add: Welcome to the forum! |

Thanks for the comments. It was actually a strange thing happening. I was out to hunt for a reward to myself. I have always been interested in wristwatches, but never felt like opening the wallet for a quality brand. Thinking, thinking on buying an Omega, but first looking for a Longines... in Kaplans, An antiques auctionist in Stockholm, I tried a Fortis big Crown... but it did not fit my wrist. I glazed around and saw a small collection of SO's and fell in love. I would not think on Breitling before: too big, a bit for the newly-rich people (you have heard them all). This was the total change - I really like my Breitling and keep checking the time, all the time. Now looking for a Navitimer... in time, in time. Preferable an oldie... Cheers P |
