Breitlings new SuperOcean M2000 chronograph!....it's a thermoconpensated quartz,but I gotta have 1 of these! Breitling Superocean Chronograph M2000 Watch.

Swiss made Breitling Calibre 73 thermocompensated quartz electronic movement. 46mm stainless steel case with a unidirectional ratcheted easy-grip bezel and a 4mm thick shatter resistant sapphire crystal glareproofed on both sides. Matching red accents on the fly-back hand and chronograph subdials contrast elegantly with the black dial. 1/10th second, 60 minute and 12 hour chronograph, equipped with an exclusive magnetic pushpiece system whereby the chronograph is controlled via the metal of the case.

Very interesting, Oscar. Too bad it's a quartzie but it looks really nice. |

not just a regular quartzie Jeff,but a thermo-compensated Super Quartz...Breitling has not designated a quartz movement the "Super Quartz" tag since 2002,and being thermo compensated it can adjust to temps...the Caliber 73 is about 20 times more accurate than a normal quartz, about 15 sec. per year,and this new chrono can be used at extreme depths 2000 meters.I hope a pic of this movement is posted somewhere as I suspect it will be quite impressive.. |

Oh, I remember now...a Super Quartz. I read about it some time back when it was discussed on 3T. I think one of us on 3T has it on an Accutron....unsure though. If a high end quartzie is +/- 2 to 10 seconds a year, I wonder how this one will fare? Amazing. |

the quartz in the Accutron is not thermocompensated,and called a hi-efficency rather than SuperQuartz...a better comparison would be the OysterQuartz that Rolex produced in a limited quantity that I balked at buying for $2500. 7 years ago and now goes upward of $7000. if you can find one....what sets the Breitling apart from others is that it is a chronograph,and that the chrono function can be used underwater to depths of 2000m. |

Retail North of $4000 US but can be found now and then for less on sale. Would be quite the Divers tool watch. |

I think it is a nice looking watch, but I have hard time parting with what they are asking for given it is a quartz movement. I am sure one day in the future I will wishing I had bought one when it is worth as much as a new Rolex. ;-) |
