I've been tempted by the latest Breitling Superocean Automatic range, but one of the things making me hesitant pulling the trigger is the rather lame 38h power reserve.

It's close diving competitor, the Omega Seamaster has 55h and the Tudor Pelagos has 70h. It makes the Breitling reserve look pretty disappointing in this day and age.

The reality is that 38h would probably be enough for me - I only wear a watch like this once or twice a week, but it feels like a bit of a reflection of the quality of the movement.

I'll admit that I don't get too into all the different movements so I was wondering what others thought?

Does a low power reserve in a modern watch put you off?
