Hi all.

Just thought I'd introduce myself. Been thinking of getting a ling for a long time and since I just got back from afghanistan I feel like treating myself to something nice.

Really liked the B-1 but since they're no longer available I'm thinking the airwolf. Anybody have any opinons on this watch?

Thanks in advance.

It has incredible dial detail. A beautiful watch for sure!

Why don't you ask an AD to ask Breitling if they know any around or if they still can supply them.
Specify how you want your B-1 to be and Breitling will tell you if there are still any left.
That is how I got my brand new B-1 in Feb. of 2008 and B-2 this month! long after production ended.
I've heard stories of models that ended 15 years ago and were still in their warehouse....

Welcome from another Ontarian!

A lot of people were disappointed when the B1 was discontinued, but as suggested you may be lucky enough to find one - especially with a chain like La Swiss who can pull from any other store.

Airwolf is a nice watch, it's definitely growing on me.

Welcome to the forum! I got a close look at a lot of Breitlings this weekend while I was in Vegas. The professional line is really starting to grow on me. What do you think about the Skyracer, this one is a beautiy. Good luck finding a B-1 if that's what you really want. I'm pretty sure someone just sold one here on this forum too. :cry:

Hey thanks for all the info.

Went into La Swiss today and they said the model was discontinued. Already knew that but didn't ask if they could ask around or even call Breitling. Might go to the La Swiss downtown and ask them.

Although the new 08 airwolf looks pretty nice as well. I really have to see these watches in person. The pictures just do not do these things justice. Think that goes for all breitlings as well

thanks again guys
