The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I've been looking for one of these for a while now and this one popped up for sale in my home town - very convenient, too convenient to pass up. Single owner, all box and papers.



May look for a brown croc to go with this.

Congratulations Terry, awesome pick up. I love the busyness of the B2, to the point I nearly picked one up about a year ago. I think a brown strap will work well!

Thanks Tim, it really is a busy dial but I like the complicated look on this one, my 'instrument for professionals' candidate. It will fill my white dial need until that elusive Nav. 1903 shows up.
This one becomes available about the same time as the Mark II LE gets delivered, wasn't in the plan - but then again, what is the plan I still don't have my diver I was supposed to get .

That's a pretty nice pickup! I don't think I've seen the white dial before, looks great!

the white dial is awesome - very nice watch

Awesome watch. Really looks like a fucntional piece of art.

Did you ever decide on a Diver in the end? Any that were on the short list at least.

I've decided I'm going to upgrade the Oris I have to either an Omega Planet Ocean or Breitling Superocean Chrono. I'd even consider the Steelfish chrono but I'm pretty sure it'll be the Omega as I'd like to try one.

Your collection is looking pretty healthy now!

Thanks for the comments, guys!



No Tim, I never did. I've recently been looking at the Omega 2254.50 which is the older Seamaster with the 'sword' hands and the newly discovered Archimede diver, a nice priced piece for 'the lake'. The new Breit. SO II just did not do all that much for me. I may have to sell the B&R before any more purchases though. My collection was not supposed to be a 'collection' .
The Omega PO is a nice watch, good size and fit for me (42mm), looked at one a while ago but AD would not discount much (now I see Govberg carries Omega).

Good luck with your decision!

Extremely pretty!

All you need is the UTC and it'll be perfection!

Davey

I hadn't thought of that (now you got me thinking - dangerous), are there white UTC available? They must have made some? I don't think I've seen one.
Thanks Davey (did you have to say 'pretty')
Terry

I'm sorry. Bloody marvellous. Better?

Yep there were white UTC dials, I'll try to find out if there was one for the B2. There are certainly some made for the CA M1.

Davey

I have never seen a white one either. Sounds pretty!

Ha! Ha! Very funny GZ...
Can't you see, it's 'bloody marvellous' (thanks Davey for your re-evaluation)

I believe they discontinued these style dials in 2004, then went to the silver or gray subs with the round hour markers.
