Superocean Heritage II

Saw this at the Breitling boutique in Vegas yesterday. The ceramic bezel is amazing and what a great price point. I was very impressed. Also, they were extremely nice and gave a great restaurant recommendation too. Javier's. Gourmet Mexican food with a coastal flair. Ok, enough plugs for one post, on to the pic.

Just got one myself (See surprised husband thread above) and I have to say that it truly is a stunning watch. Great movement under the hood too!

Very nice! I'm looking to pick one up myself. Definitely the 46mm, but not too particular about Ser I vs Ser II (though the movement and bezel do look much better in series II I admit.
And Javi's is the best! Did they expand / is it the same as from Newport Bch (original location) and their Spectrum location?

The Heritage II definitely had more pop than its predecessor. And yes I believe the restaurant was California based.

This is a super sharp looking watch. And now that they have a Tudor movement they're even that much more enticing.

Only problem for me is the size - wish it was 40mm and thinner.

Get the 42mm version, wear it for a week and you’ll love it!

Had this watch and loved it, got it when it first came out. My only issue was the thickness of the watch. I didn’t give it enough time for me to get on with it and flipped it. I do regret it. I have the 43mm black version with the rubber mesh strap, that was a brilliant strap but again, very big buckle! Damn my small wrist!

This may be my first Breitling. I tried one on at AD and it felt great on my wrist. I didn't care for the SS mesh bracelet-just a bit too much shiny for my taste-easily remedied by purchasing a strap version.

Best,

Scott

I have the same watch in 2 variations. 46 mm all black bezel/dial combo and the 46 mm blue bezel/dial combo. Absolutely love them both but will be parting ways with the black one soon.

I am thinking of getting a new SO Heritage II 42mm with a black dial on a leather strap. For those that have one, please let me know how thick it is and how comfortable it sits on your wrist. Picture(s) will be appreciated.

Stunning watch. I’m itching for a brown dial/bezel combo on leather.

It's a great watch, I owned the 46mm version a few years ago.
