Ordered the blue, just received QC but rejected because of a damage on the outside of the bezel

Other than that, this watch looks great and I can't wait to get it.

Wow. I've to admit the blue one looks amazing, especially its sunburn effect..

Thanks for the review.
I'll be rushing off to order one of these shortly.
Having owned the gen, orange accented A17391 SO 44 in the past I was equally as impressed with the rep version when it arrived.
I concur: it's "Super Rep" in my book and actually wears much smaller than one would think ( I have a 6.75-7" wrist myself. )
I have to wonder if the SS bracelet from the earlier SuperOcean 44 will fit this one ?

Wonder if Noob is planing to also make the superocean II special?

This would be killer! I've read the whole bezel is ceramic one piece. Wonder if they could do that

I too owned the red version... this is better done than the rep of that previous watch. Not sure about the bracelet. Gen bracelet is ~ $650 pro III... might be worth getting if you got it.

Wow. That's a beauty.
First this one you have...then being enlightened on the TAG Phantom and the discovery of the line of Christopher Ward pieces.
I'm so glad I made the decision to move a few select gen Rollies: the vast selections of these Super Reps are so much more fun.
The newcomers in the Rep World have it made: it seems the entire industry in whole has stepped up their game.
I just wish gen Breitling and Tag Heuer parts were as plentiful as some of the other brands like Rolex and Omega.

I'll order one and see if the steel bracelet from the steelfish fits. It's a flat case so with flat endlinks it might fit...

Did you wind up ordering it? I am ordering one too, but I am undecided about the bracelet. The only breitling bracelet I have is a rep mesh and I don't like it at all. TD told me that she could get a bracelet from the skyland H factory. I am sort of assuming this would be a Professional 3 rep. I would guess it would work, but not totally sure and I have no idea if that Bracelet is any good or not.

If anyone knows about that bracelet and you could chime in that would be great.

Thanks

Yes I gave up on the bracelet and decided to order it anyways.

Is your TD sure that the Skyland Bracelet will fit this watch? I 'll try my Steelfish bracelet but I doubt it will fit.

I prefer the brushed bracelet from the steelfish over the polished bracelet of the skyland rep but that's just me

no, in fact she said she couldn't promise it would fit.

I'm with you on brushed one for this watch for sure.

How is the quality of the bracelet/clasp on your steelfish? For $80 would you buy it or would you find a nice bracelet from a real aftermarket maker that wasn't stamped with the breitling logo?

On the old steelfish reps the bracelet was amazing, I don't know about the latest versions but it's quite easy to distinguish on the TD's websites pics between polished and brushed

If you can get something like the one in the below video then yes I think you should spend the 80 dollars for it.

Wait until I receive mine, I'll tell you if the steelfish bracelet fits the Superocean 2 but that won't be until the end of January, maybe later.

Great thanks. I think what I will do is just order it without ordering the bracelet and order/not order the bracelet later depending on what I hear from you. Thanks
