Hi all. New to the forum. And what a great forum. Alot of helpful info. Especially for a newbie starting out. I am trying to decide between a brand new Superocean 2 42, or a Superocean Heritage 42. I have read about issues with the B01 and B50 movements. But i can't seem to find much about the B17, that these two watches have. Is the B17 known to have issues too? Not being overly critical here or anything. Just like to know the scoop on the B17, compared to the other movements. Appreciate any help. Thanks!

B17 isnot an in house movement, it's a modified ETA so a well established base calibre that has been around for a long time. Flip side is that it is available in many watches from many brands.
