Looking to add a White Dial watch to my collection

Hi all

I have been thinking for a little while to get a white faced watch to add to my collection, I quite like the look of the 42mm SuperOcean Heritage but have not owned a Breitling previously.
I currently have a Rolex Sub non date, Panerai 312 and Omega Seamaster (blue) and Moonwatch.
I would be interested to hear from anyone has experienced ownership of this watch, how they found it and how much wrist time they gave it, I tend to where my Seamaster as my everyday work watch.

I have never owned the Heritage, but I did own a SuperOcean and other Breitlings. I know, they are very different looking watches.

All Breitling watches are very solid and well built watches. The fit and finish is superb. All of their movements are built at Breitling. They are not movements bought from someone and upgraded.

The SuperOcean Heritage will look great with dress or casual attire. Beautiful watch.

Partially true. Not all their offerings have the 01 in house movement FYI

You are correct. I should have said they are assembled by Breitling with many upgraded parts.

Save yourself a flip and look at the Rolex Polar Explorer II in 42 mm. A great watch and the dial and hands are amazing. You also get an orange GMT hand.

Hi all

Many thanks for your comments

I have tracked down a black bezel on black leather with white stitching (Rubber Strap also) that i did like, however I want to view a green bezel on steel strap before I pull the trigger.

1William - Thanks for the suggestion but I tried a Polar Explorer II before I got my PAM but I could not say why but I did not like it on the wrist. Also looked at the Milgauss.
