im picking up my friends breitling chronomat evolution pearl face with diamond bezel and double diamond markers. im paying 9k the watch is in 9/10 condition and about 2 years old. on the certificate it says "chronomat evolution acier" a1335653, serial 2063029. just curious what you think of the deal.

I'm not a Diamond person myself. But if you like it is fine.

I think you are overpaying, the watches with Diamonds loose it's value a lot, I don't know how much is the retail, but I would not pay more than 20 to 25 cents of a dollar for one.
Hopefully my advice will help in your decision. But after all, you will get what you like,

the watch brand new retails for $14,660,00 CDN so prob like $14000usd brand new....with a discount from an AD you should be able to get this watch for around 9-$10,000 NEW.


Great watch tho. so whatever you do i'm sure you will love it.

I'd price one out new from an AD before paying that. If you're in the USA, send me a PM.

thank you for the advice.. i kind of figured this, the only reason i was considering it is my buddy is giving me a decent payment plan, i cant just fork up 9k now.. and yeah im sure i could finance it from somewhere else, but im not trying to put a purchase like that on my credit. im going to see if he will do 8. at 8 i would be a happy man. again thanks fellas.

even $8K is a stretch and not worth it

Yeah I agree, this thing isn't slightly overpriced - it's hugely overpriced.

well i paid 7800 for it, and he allowed me 6mo to pay it off. well i was excited for it now im not.

he is also having it sent in to be fully serviced and polished. it does have a few little scratches, one on the glass that i figure is going to be alot to fix.

I think if you are happy paying $7800 AND he is giving you 6 mths to pay + a full service then you are not getting a HORRIBLE deal at all..


You are overpaying by about 1800, BUT with the full service added AND the fact that you are paying no additional interest over 6 mths...NOT a very bad deal at all

ENJOY the watch. I love mine!
