Thinking of adding a Superocean...

Since trying to obtain a Hulk has been a long process, I have actually started to rethink my collection. I want to add a dive watch, and the Superocean is a fantastic piece. Specifically B20, blue dial, 44 or 46mm. I think I will buy the mesh bracelet, then add the rubber strap.

Anyone have any experience of adding the SOH II because of the current nature of Rolex supply? Any regrets? Anyone have an idea of the cost of the rubber strap from the AD?

For what it's worth, I'm going to get a SuperOcean as my dive watch for my collection. The Sub and GMT just look too much alike to warrant having them both, and I have a GMT already.

I recently added the 42mm to my collection ... The rubber strap is like $500 if I recall correctly since it comes with its own specific clasp.

If you want a dive watch to actually go diving, I recommend this SOII 44. It came with a rubber strap.

How are you liking it so far? I would like to get the bracelet and rubber strap, as both appear to change the dynamic of the watch dramatically.

How is the accuracy?

Love the look and feel of the SOH II .. Unfortunately .. its currently at the Breitling Service Center since it was gaining 12 seconds a day new out of the box. It should be back soon .... hopefully running COSC ...
