The latest measurements of the masses and lifetimes of weakly decaying B~hadrons from experiments at e+e- and pp colliders are presented. These measurements include the lifetimes of the B0, B0s, B-, and b~baryons, as well as searches for the Bc~meson. The observation of B^*, p-wave B~mesons (B**), and excited b~baryons using inclusive and exclusive B~hadron reconstruction are discussed. Results on b~quark flavour tagging are given.
