The B17s (whether Selitta or ETA) are durable, reliable and inexpensive to maintain. For a watch like this, I would have zero issue with a movement like this... in fact, it would be preferred over an in-house due to its durability and lower cost of service. It all boils down to what makes you smile, so don't be afraid to buy a Breitling with a non in-house movement. If you do, you'll miss out on a lot of fun!
