I been after this watch since they unveiled at Basel 09, but kept on hearing a run around every time i called my dealer.... We have a family owned jewelry store for over 25 years, but are not a Breitling AD, we specialize more in high end/custom design, but have many connects within the industry, so you can say i get quite a fair percentage off hahah..... Called my dealer back in September, said theyre just starting to "barely" roll them out, and that they didnt even have one in there store.....long story short, finally around a month ago i called my dealer, and said listen i want to pre order this watch, he told me me its on 3-4 month back order still, and i said well i might as well go ahead and pre order it. To my surprise he called me back and said i have great news for you,there gon push it through and youll be recieving it in 6 weeks tops....so now its just a waiting came could be any day now, im so excited... this is the B01 i went with, black onyx face with black croc strap, also i included one of my current ones that i adore (which ive posted before) Chrono Evo MOP dial Diamond markers and then we did the diamond bezel ourselves, which for our first try at a bezel, was very happy with the outcome,

That is an excellent choice for colour combo... I know it felt very nice on my wrist when I tried one on. Bring on those pics!

At the risk of sounding rude, could someone tell me an approximate price range (USD) for the B01. I like them quite a bit.

Congraulations, I love it, particularly on the black croco! These B01's are definitely growing on me.
