Icon11 SuperOcean Heritage 46 Limited Edition..???



hi guys, my Breitling knowledge isnt great, so please excause me for asking newbie questions.

saw this one with a green bezel today and was quite pleased with it - have had a couple chances in the past to either get a bronze or a black 46, but it never eventuate.

im a self-confessed green colour nut, so this limited one jumps at me natually






so apart from the obvious visual differences, what else's different? couldnt remember the prices either, so if anyone know the UK MSRP, please do tell

what do you think? i think i'd prefer the bracelet version

Looks like the green bezel is the only difference.... There's another brand that does that (just adds a green bezel, and nothing else), but I can't think of it right now...

'Tween you and I, Eric, if you really want the black or bronze version, go for those - you can't go wrong with either. If I stumble upon a bronze one on bracelet at a decent price, I'm snatching one up for myself. These look really good when the bezel and the dial are uniform on colour, IMO. Even the blue one (which I didn't think was going to look good) looked awesome in person. But it's on its way to buddy Carl

Oh, and lastly, DON'T BUY NEW! You will take a hit on the resale if it ever comes down to it. There are many pre-owned complete ones at a decent price out there.

Carl was telling me about that, can't wait to see some pics. Looks like a cool watch, I like the green bezel one.

thank you Sir

i think i may be keen on one if the price is decent. i think i would prefer the green bezel on bracelet - since green is my fave colour.

the reason i was looking at the black version was because i didnt have a black Sub...
