SuperOcean Blue...

I tried on this 2010 SuperOcean today. What an incredible watch. Though it says 42mm, it feels much smaller due to the dial size. The price is 2,300 dollars, as usual, I was tempted but did not pull the trigger.

I would like to hear some opinions from others on this watch...,

I always liked those but I prefer the 44 since it has a less cluttered dial.
Liking the 44 it's a bit unusual for me since I have a small wrist, but like you said... they do wear smaller.

Also like the subtilty of the blue ring on against the black dial and bezel.

Simple, solid, reliable watch, and a great price for the quality. Breitling has a more aggressive look than other lines in the same price point (TAG, OMEGA, BALL) but if you want something very sporty and relatively inexpensive, SO's are a great choice. My only, only hiccup, is the rubber bezel. I haven't seen any issues pop up on here recently with them, and they seem pretty sturdy, but it seems like it'd be something that'd eventually get ragged.

For $2,300 I say go for it. My only concern is the longevity of the rubber bezel.

IMHO you need to go with the 44mm SO, it just looks better to me.
