Hi there, sorry to be the harbinger of bad news, but I bought the 38 Superocean Heritage last November. After 5 weeks it had to go back for regulation as it was gaining about 15 secs a day. In April this year the winding crown fell off in my hands. 4 weeks ago, after doing some not too strenuous gardening, it suddenly began gaining 14 HOURS in 36!!!. 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.
Regards
