I have a question about AR coating. Do all Lings have it or are there a select few that get that treat? If so then why does this SA have so much glare? Sorry if posting an eBay auction is against the rules since I don't have a photobucket account.

Doesnt look like a lot of glare to me. Without the AR, you might have a hard time seeing the dial in those pics.

I like how durable the double AR coating is on Breitlings. I have an Omega Planet Ocean, and the AR is scratched in quite a few places. My SuperOcean has taken some serious abuse, and the crystal still looks as new as the day I bought it. :lingsrock:

Let me rephrase... Do all Breitlings have double AR?

Yes, and have done for quite some time.

Excellent post. Breitlings sapphire crystal quality and double AR really are the best I have seen, along with the quality of the straps/bracelets and the attention to detail (ar coated sapphire on the 12 o clock lume for instance) I think this is where Breitling really stand out!

You couldn't possibly annoy me! I learned something again I did not know - that double AR coating really does it's business!
BTW, I still love the Titanium Seawolf with the OR strap!!!
Cheers,
Carl
