FSOT: Breitling B-1 (UK deal preferred) *LINK* *PIC*

For sale or trade is my October 2004 Breitling B-1 SuperQuartz in 95%-97% condition and still under manufacturers warranty.

The watch is presented in stainless steel with the desirable black dial. It comes with the Fighter bracelet (all links included) which has hardly been used, and a newly fitted Breitling OEM black calf strap with contrasting white stitching and signed buckle (not pictured) which really complements the watch well and has been worn only a handful of times. All boxes and papers are included:

- Outer yellow card box
- Inner Bakelite box
- User guide & sleeve
- Distributors leaflet
- Warranty certificate (stamped AD and dated 12/10/2004)
- COSC certificate
- Instructions for the slide rule
- Additional card slide rule
- Hang tag
- Original purchase invoice
- And more...

All are original and mint.

As for the watch itself, it really is superb - the ultimate tool watch. Just look at this list of features:

- One analog dial and two digital read-outs
- Display backlighting compatible with NVG (night vision goggles)
- 12/24 hour time on digital display
- 1/100th second chrohograph with max 99 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 59.99 secs plus split times
- Alarm (sound resonance chamber on the back of the watch)
- Countdown timer
- 2nd time zone with alarm
- Additional UTC time zone (3rd time zone!)
- Digital perpetual calendar
- Bi-direction slide rule bezel (surprisingly useful!)
- 50m water resistance
- Sapphire crystal (glare-proofed both sides)

The watch is 43.2mm in diameter and wears beautifully. It is in near mint condition, having been desk-bound most of its life) with only a few light scratches on the bezel that can been seen between the 55-50 mark on the images.

You will NOT be disappointed with this watch!

Retail is £1985 plus £85 for the strap and buckle. For sale today at £1395 OBO INCLUDING insured shipping within the UK and Paypal fees (bank wire also accepted).

Would consider trading for a mechanical 40mm+ GMT Chronograph with 100m+ WR such as Sinn with cash on your side.

If you have any questions please email me.

Cheers,

Guy
