| Post subject: | New To Breitling - What do you think? |
Hi, I found this great site while looking for information on Breitling. (you guys know your stuff!) I have been looking for a Breitling for some time and have now found one that I like. http://cgi.ebay.com/Breitling-Chrono-Se ... dZViewItem The trouble is that I don't know much about the model. I have looked at all of the helpful information on this site and it seems ok to me - Is it? Is this model good/reliable? Is the condition of this watch good or just ok? Is the price reasonable? Any other comments ? I hope it is all good but - fools rush in, so I thought i would ask some experts first! thanks, Simon |

I think it's overpriced for the model. That is a tiny watch, what we'd call "Mid-Sized"... and smaller than any Men's Breitling that is currently in production. I Would not think that watch is worth much more than $1000, personally. Also the movement is Quartz, with mechanical Chronograph, but the main movement is quartz, so it is battery operated. |

Simon, I agree with Admin on this one. If you were prepared to spend $1700 check out the link below. For a couple hundred more you could get a brand new Super Ocean Steelfish. They have 2 on Steel bracelets ranging from $1920 to $1935 and one on a strap for $1695. You will need a little REHAB if you choose the one on the strap but its a better start than paying $1700 for that 1/4 Ling. See the link below. http://www.interwatches.com/index.php?A ... oryId=1360 |

I am with acceldebt and admin. Personally I would spend the extra money and get a brand new, out of the box Breitling. Im also from the school of thought that says if you are going to buy a Breitling, it needs to be fully mechanical. So my advice, dont buy this one, rather take your time and look for a new one Hope that helps |
