what colour is the face?
Picked up a blue face from the SC a month ago, its my second B1 :wink:
Picked up this new B1 from an AD in London. Thought these were discontinued, must have been my lucky day...

Very lucky indeed! Great watch. Which AD did you find this in if you don't mind me asking?
Great pick-up mate 8) 8) 8) The B-1 has been discontinued but yours is a beautiful example! Congrats. :P These models have gained favour over the more recent incarnations of this Brietling calibre - the Cal 78 SuperQuartz.
Mine says hi (black faced version)
But this one looks an interesting alternative (using the breitling.com on-line configurator):

Thanks. Got it from Watches of Switzerland on New Bond St, London.Originally Posted by Willows
Ernest Jones in Edinburgh (Prince's Street) had a couple of them in the window last week :wink:
Those gained a lot of favour in the RAF Helicopter world when I was still serving, gorgeous watches and as I recall NVG compatible illumination.
Congratulations on your purchase. I had my interest in the B1's aroused by a thread that ran over the Xmas break.
Had no idea you could still pick them up new?
Stunning looking watch and I've yet to hear a bad word about them from current owners...plenty of previous owners seem to express regret at selling 'em mind!! :lol:
Congrat for the watch.
IT is not my style though. The dial is too busy for me
Congrats,
Love the grey dial. I've seen pics of these on NATO straps and they look great.
Enjoy
Awesome watch - I'm sure you'll enjoy wearing it. I got mine in July last year, new from an AD - glad to hear that there are still a few new kicking around..
For work I put it on the Breitling rubber, super comfy and looks great.
