Thanks to Justin & George @ Govberg I received my Airwolf today. It's such a cool watch and has been a grail of mine. It's my first HEQ and hopefully it will serve me well for a long time to come.

Some quick pictures:

What does HEQ mean? Also, nice watch. That was my first B! Be careful, they tend to multiply..

HEQ means Hi-End Quartz. It generally means thermocompensated quartz, but also include other extremely accurate quartz movements.

Yeah, I hear you on multiplying B's. This is actually my second B. :lingsrock:

Do these HEQ watched have a sweeping second hand like my SOH ? Or is it more of a normal "tick tock"

All Breitling quartz tick once per second. You can get quartz that move more frequently but it's a battery drain so not common.

No watch will appeal to everyone, but you know some Seikos aren't so bad.

I love my Seiko as well :) :

Nice Ananta! I allways found Seiko to be pretty under-estimated. Iv'e considered taking a closer look at a couple of Ananta's or comparable SpringDrive models. What are your impressions of the one you have?

I really like the Ananta. The Spring Drive is a special movement and that's the main reason I got it. I also really like the katana blade motif of the Ananta line and I think it's as well made as anything in its price range. It is a big watch and all that polished surface invites scratches, but then again that's not anything Breitling owners aren't used to. It and my two Breitlings (the other Breitling being a SuperOcean) are the favorites of my collection.
