I would keep the Tudor. In my opinion the Black Bay is way cooler than any Breitling.

This is a Rolex/Tudor forum, so I would think the majority will say "don't do it"....include me in that majority.

The Breitling isn't half bad looking on the mesh and the movements are a wash, so, why not? Plus, you'll have the date function (if that matters to you). Especially if the BB doesn't have the bracelet.

Choose which you like best imho. I like my Breitling Super Ocean XPlus 42mm and one of the things I like about the Tudor GranTour is that it is similar to the Breitlings your considering. The advantage the Breitling has is a date which the BBR doesn't! You might try asking the question in the Breitling sub forum.

I vote for the Breitling. Looks more modern and finished IMO

I actually really like the lugs on the new Breitling Superocean Heritage II. I'd make that trade.

I'd go Breitling and put it on a leather strap.
I've had two Tudor BBs and they just didn't quite do it for me. I've never owned but always liked the look of that Breitling. I'm also a fan of leather straps and that is a great model to put on a leather strap. Not so much a fan of it on the mesh bracelet though so I guess depends on how you want to wear it. |

Depends which BB. Still think Breitling is getting the short end of the stick on this movement exchange program but the new SuperOcean Heritage IS good looking.

WTH; how'd that show up for me? Definitely a dated email from right about the time the Breitlings came out. Funny I was thinking back about how I was considering them. Guilty as charged!!! Last activity was this month; judging from the lack of incoming thread, I'd guess not.

I prefer the black Bay. That said I have two blue Bezel Black Bays in house and would love to trade for a superocean Heritage II especially in blue or white.
