USPS kindly delivered my first Breitling today. Superocean II Abyss with blue ring on Pro II bracelet. Apparently, I don't have the correct size screwdriver to adjust this bracelet so it will have to keep resting on it's pillow for now.

It looks fabulous in person! I will post much better pics once it is ready for action! (Stickers and protectors staying on for now in case I have to take it somewhere to get it sized).

Very nice, congratulations. Look forward to more pics.

Congrats enjoy!

Nice watch I have the same one with yellow ring and The rubber deployment strap. I think it is a great watch!

Excellent pickup Blaine, congrats! Looking forward to seeing more pics. Obviously this design has stirred a lot of controversy since its introduction, but after trying one on at my AD and seeing it on my wrist from a normal perspective, I'm a believer.

My first Breitling came in a few weeks ago. It's the Superocean II Abyss Yellow on a rubber strap with tang buckle.

I am really enjoying it and I am sure you will , too. Have the bracelet sized at a Breitling AD or other watch place with a skilled jeweler, you don't want it botched!

I feel vindicated by the Breitling debuts at Basel that are a spinoff of this model. It shows that it must be desireable in the marketplace. I think the design is modern and it "pops" in person.

I urge all Breitling fans to try one on. If the current 42mm size is too small for you (I like it), the next version comes in a 44mm size.

I just saw them last week for the first time in my local AD, they are sharp and a great summer water watch. I have it in the back of my head, I just might have to buy one.

bkandj2000 · 27 March 2011, 12:05 PM

Thanks for all the kind words!

Before my wife and I went to dinner tonight, we stopped by an AD to have the Breitling sized properly. Here are a few shots I took this evening/tonight. I'm really liking this watch!

Before ordering at dinner.

Pizza was delicious!

Then more pics after we got back home.

The only thing better than SuperOcean is SuperOcean on bracelet!
Huge congrats on that beauty!

Picked up a new SuperOcean II Black Abyss yesterday. Went ahead and purchased the Pro II bracelet and the Breitling rubber strap with the tang buckle. Well-made piece.
