They B-2 Movement is based on a ETA 2892, which does Hack.. so the Breitling 42 movement in the B-2 *should* hack. I don't have mine on hand to check right now.

Hacking Seconds hand means that the second hand stops when the crown is pulled out

Let me refer you to the Breitling Source Glossary

Reason for asking as that I just bought a used one and found that it does not hack.

But I've opended the case and it has a genuine Breitling movement.
