My favorite watch of all time, period. The only non-mechanical Breitling I've owned but it receives far and away the most wrist time. Functionality and versatility plus insane accuracy. If I could only have one watch, the B-1 is that watch.
Best,
Ron


Great to see those classic pics my good friend, those date pre the golf cart incident don't they?

Watch has arrived and is in excellent condition. I'm very happy I pulled the trigger on acquiring it!

The B-1 is an all time Breitling quartz classic.
I'm not a great fan of quartz watches but the B-1 is an exception.
One day....

Not 100% sure if Breitling changed it to SQ or not. Doesn't state it on the service invoice, but was verbally advised to the previous owner that they changed the movement.

I work 5 mins from the Breitling Service Centre in Toronto, so I'm going to run over this week and ask.
