This watch is great. I've had mine since 2004, no problems keeps great time. Bracelet is nice and beefy, heavy watch I suggest you have a good size wrist. It's a big watch, I get many compliments and couldn't be happier with my purchase. The other reviewer SHOULD NOT have worn his in a hot tub. Never ever do that the seals breakdown pretty quick, it's hard on a watch. I wear mine all the time in the shower, swimming in the pool. It does snag into things once in a while because the main bezel has some sharper edges, but because it's crafted from a solid piece of steel. It's not stamped like cheap watches.

Buy one and enjoy, it has the Breitling quality you would expect.

I bought a Breitling 4 years ago and had so many problems with it since then. I am not used to taking my watch off my wrist even when I take shower. I have 2 other watches, one Rolex and one Omega and never had problems taking bath or getting into the water with them, but with Breitling I had. It was about 2 months after I bought it, the damn thing formed moisture inside it, kind of the air condensate inside , probably from me getting into a hot bathtub wearing it, so I took the watch to the dealer and they said that Breitling didn't offer any warranty in the case that water, humidity gets or moisture/condensate forms inside the watch.(It was supposed to be water proof). So I had to pay US$900 to have a repair service and cleaning done on the thing. Then within one week after getting the watch back, one screw of the bezel fell off so I took the watch back for repair and again they told me that there was no warranty for that because the place where the screw goes was damaged due to over torque on the screw and that it would cost me about US$400, or even more depending, to have it repaired, so I just gave up repairing it again. Next day I took the watch to another watch repair store, and to add insult to injury, the clerk at the store told me that who ever did the repair on the watch before had over tightened the screw and by doing so had damaged not only the screw but the hole and then to cover the mistake they had put superglue in the hole and placed the screw back. (Isn't it a kind of thing that would piss someone off?)
WHAT A SH.T service.

I am very disappointed and I am sure to let everyone knows about it.
I have had my Rolex for about 10 years and my Omega for 6 and never had a major problem with them.
The only time I had a problem with my Rolex was when the wristband didn't want to lock properly so I took it for repair and they repaired it in 24 hours NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

I'll give it one star because there is nothing worse to give in here.
