Brooks B17 Saddle?

Probably the wrong sub-forum, but I spend all my time in this one so....
My 1990 Trek 1000 came (bought it used) with a Ritchie Logic saddle, and I hate it. It's too hard! I am looking at buying a new saddle. I have read that Brooks saddles are supposed to be the most comfortable after they are broken in. I found a Brooks B17 Standard online for $52. Is this the way to go. Or would I be better off getting a different modle of Brooks seat? Or better off buying different seat altogether?
I intend to use the bike for longer distances rides (centurys...), not touring or racing or anything like that.

Thanks,
RJ
