I took it back to the shop and told them I was rejecting it. I got all my money back and bought a Rolex Sub ceramic date. I now find out that Breitling have discontinued this model, and more importantly have stopped using the ETA mech which is inside these watches. Sorry, but that is how it is.

sorry, but you are wrong on a few things there. they have not discontinued the watch, and they still use that eta based movement, its the breitling 37, its based on an eta 2895-2 and is used in the soh 38 and galactic 36.
