Today I got one of my dreamwatches...

I've been looking for a good B1 for quite some time now... but they were all either too expensive or too worn out.

An offer in a german watchforum cought my interest... I had something to trade, the seller wanted and we agreed on a price.

The watch came without B&P but with the original Instructions, a traveling case and a fresh battery...

Here are the pics:

Of course with full functions... I love the nightvision on this thing!

The caseback is a work of art!
Image

With a 43.5mm size it fits my arm (with 8.5") pretty perfect!

The "Slate Grey" dial gives it a very technical look... the color changes depending on the lighting from steelblue to black! Great stuff!

Thats it, hope you enjoyed the show. 8-)

Not a quartz guy but the B-1 has always been one of my guilty pleasures... (mentioned b4) super sharp!

Congrats! and yes the case back is a work of art...
