Breitling has changed significantly under the new leadership of Georges Kern. Gone are the days of the macho-type,hugely oversized and bling-bling watches while existing model lines,like the Superocean,have been cleaned up. The Superocean is a no-nonsense...  

yup it’s an awesome watch

I owned the alternatives and at a fraction of the price these new super oceans are great!

The Breitling is somewhat more expensive than the Tudor BB.

But the Tudor BB with a WR rating of 200m is not really a good comparison with the 1000m WR rated Superocean. I was thinking more on the Tudor Pelagos (500 m WR) and the Omega Planet Ocean (600m WR) which are both more expensive than the Breitling. Your V... 

Very nice. I agree their prices are very tempting and the guilt

isn't as bad when I explain to my other half. I think I may go for the Navitimer 1 black dial outer white with rose gold indexes next time. But I have to wait as I'm not sure if I'll go for the 38 or 41mm. Have to wait for the AD to open again or if I may...  

The Breitling Premier is a great watch.

IMO one of the best modern chronographs. I have the Bentley version (obviously I like green dials…). ...  

Any similarities?

I still favor the PO 42MM from Omega for current divers but with 8500 movement and matte black bezel... I am of course bias because that is my favorite watch in my small collection! -D-

My first nice watch was a superocean chrono circa early 2000's on the fighter bracelet.. [nt]

later also had leather strap with deployment clasp.. wore it for about 13 years straight.. and 10 before servicing.. Superoceans are definitely tanks!! I miss her.. wish i didnt trade her in! ...  

Congratulations, one serious looking diver. And I wouldn't put down their movements ......

I got my 2001 Chronoavenger partly because of a great review in WatchTime magazine. One thing they mentioned was it was the best regulated movement they tested. One day at a dealer they had a Zenith rep doing free timing checks. It was less than 1 second ...
