I do like the Breitlings, complicated yet just right. Very nice!

JJ's right, Sam. It's a great looking watch. Love the complications. My Breitling Olympus was my second favorite watch (after my GMT) but it may have dropped to third place with the acquisition of my Glycine Airman 9.

Nice looking B2. Will the rotating bezel found on most Breitlings like the SuperOcean come off the same way a Rolex Sub or GMT will?

Sorry, Sam. I can't read the rings on mine, either. I guess you need flight training to read those rings.

That's why I got the Olympus. I love the idea of a slide rule. Takes me back to my engineering school days. I still have two straight rules and an Amphenol circular rule with RF tramsmission line calculator on the reverse.

My Olympus works fine. I've had it for about 2 years and it's just about as good a timekeeper as my GMT.
